Re: Mecanum vs Omni vs KOP wheels

Yeah, mecanum and omni do no perform the same, and require very different configurations.

Omni allow for rotation with less frictional resistance, and also some sliding.

Mecanum are individually powered wheels that are designed to allow for more directions of powered motion.
