Re: Dodgeball Robots

Circular robot with 3-sided pickup, swerve drive, and a dual wheeled shooter. Field-centric, of course.
I would have to go for omnidirectional movement using an H-drive, omnis on the corners, mecanum or swerve, because avoiding things in dodgeball while getting balls can benefit from moving sideways.
And yeah, FTC seems kind of small for dogeballs. However, given single-ball possesion rules it should be workable. Think 2008 or 2014.
