Re: Programming Andy Mark Killough Omni Directional Drive/ C++?

I can't tell you anything C++ specific, but I can tell you fairly generic things I learned in LabVIEW.

There *might* be a Holonomic Drive or Mecanum Drive class. If so, that is what you want. I know it exists in LabVIEW, but I do not know about C++.

If there is not, you can write a function or class to utilize four motor controllers in a holonomic arrangement and a vector from the joystick.
