Virtual Robot System - Introducing VIRSYS (alpha)

[JohnGilb]

Good to know it's in the works!

There's no pressing need, but I think software that would let programmers try out new drive types would be a huge asset. One of the things that makes teams wary of implementing holonomic/swerve drive is knowing that the programming for it is going to be more complex than tank drive, and they don't want to hit all the painful issues during the season.

Having a virtual playground where you can test out new programming ideas would give them more confidence, and we'd probably see more complex drives emerge as a result.
