In one of the iterations of or 2014 bot we used the latex ring from the base of a condom as a belt to transmit rotation between a VP and a absolute encoder. It worked reasonably well but since it was used for position PID on arm we didn't want to risk loosing count as we didn't have a method of quickly re zeroing.
