Re: Drivetrain First Thoughts?
Here's what 2181 has come up with:
We decided on an omnidirectional drive, so that we can let the robot, in essence, drive itself. When we get to the guidelines, rather than us lining it up, have the robot set itself to angle 0 (via gyroscope) and follow the lines from there. Little room for human error and we'll always be facing the wall with omni drive.
I don't think we'll lose on speed but has anyone ever thought of acceleration being an issue with the omni drive? Just a thought since there isn't as much power in those wheels.
