Thanks for clarifying that for me. Either way, it still has a huge pushing force. Not shown in the video is me sitting on the carpet (which is FRC carpet) and having the robot push me. I only weigh about 150 lbs, but I would assume the coefficient of friction for jeans on carpet is much higher than chair feet
