1640-excellent documentation. You can look up the design process and I believe CAD models all the way from where they started.

2451-continued development on neutrinos swerve

696-new swerve this year, very elegant IMO

I didn't link pics directly but you should be able to find some good stuff based on that.
I would argue 2451's swerve drive here is better than 1717's:

It's a variation of Aren's swerve, but shifting. Plus, they released the CAD for it.
