As far as I know, the only drive system patented at this time is Team 217's CCT. They have stated that if you want to use their design, that is fine, you just need to credit them for it.
Im not sure, but I thought I heard talk of team 45 patenting their ball drive. I'm sure they have the ame philosophy as team 217 though.
