Re: Maximizing the in-line CoF of Omni-wheels

Well,
either 4 omnis in the corners or one omni in the center. With these configurations, the extra COF might not help due to one or more wheels not touching the ground fully. You would need suspension (that's the word I was looking for!) or a different setup that hasn't been used to maximize ground contact with all wheels and escape spinning issues.
