Re: The advantage of holonomic drivetrains

Our team has an omni-drive robot this year. We are usnig our own form of the mechanum wheels. So far(just in our test runs before ship day) it seemed to work really well. The way our wheels are designed, we have a good pushing ability and also it is fairly hard to push us around. We are also able to make it up the ramp(or at least we are pretty sure we can). We leave to go to Las Vegas tomarrow so we will know for sure how well our drive train works.
