Re: Tank Treads
So you know (and to keep this in mind) some regional events take place in gyms on hardwood floors and others take place on soft rubber composite floors. This rule is to prevent damage to the subsurface as well as the carpet. As to rubber tracks attached to chains, the answer becomes a yes and no. Yes if rubber is the only material that contacts the carpet and is not so aggressive the it digs into the carpet fibers. No if the attachment uses fasteners that also contact the carpet and have the potential for damage. For any contrivance used to move the robot, your design should not be one that leaves (or has a potential to leave) a residue or lubricant on the carpet.
