Re: Castors?

How about ball casters? These would be great if you don't have any obstacles to roll over. One big advantage of ball casters is that they don't tend to steer the robot like conventional pivoting wheel casters (like on a wheel chair), making it more responsive and easier to program autonomous motion.
