Re: Omni Wheels Survey
If the mecanum wheels produced 100% power in the forward or reverse direction, it would be impossible to strafe. We know that this setup can strafe, so the power must be in the direction that the rollers are facing.
Another proof is to watch a video of a holonomic platform with mecanum wheels. Watch what happens when 2 wheels on a diagonal are powered. The robot moves in the direction that the rollers are facing.
