Thanks for the compliments. I did my best in the model and it took me a while since this is my inventor rookie year.
Our sensors were used to measure the number of spins for our holonomic drive because of technical problems we ditched this idea. The sensors now still help us to keep all motors spinning at the same rate.
Unfortunately I cannot tell you about our programming. I am just the Inventor design guy. But I can get some information for you if you really want!
@lilstogi11: Did you check out our electronics board? I spent a lot of time doing it.
