Re: pic: Skunkswerve....team 1983
To answer some question, we are using a coaxial design for the steering/power shafts.
We considered powering all four "cans" independently, but decided that a half swerve design with a CIM powering each side would provide enough flexibility for control. As of now we can orient the front and back pair independently in addition to powering the front and back separately.
Our team discussed implementing a traction control system, but we decided that it could hinder the driver’s ability to control the robot, much like the Airbus fly-by-wire systems that have caused pilot/computer “disagreements.”
