Re: Implementing Traction Control for an advantage in the 2009 game

I’m thinking two things,
1st by the time you have drive control your robot is going to be hit by another and be out of control.
2nd Optics - Optical encoders on the wheels and optical mouse to senses floor movement. The mouse may need modifying so it will work a few inches off the floor. I will be a cool thing for the programs to work on.

I think this game is going to fun to build, play, and watch
