Sensors for mecanum wheels?
We recently just got a prototype mecanum wheel platform working with a three axis joystick, and everything is working perfectly as far as being able to strafe, move forward backward, and rotate at the same time or independently or what have you.
The next step would be to get the robot working with the appropriate sensors so that "forward" is always the same direction relative to the driver, as right now forward is always the same direction relative to the robot.
So my question is, what sensors (Accelerometer? Gyro? Both?) would we need to be able to control the robot so that forwards is always relative to the driver?
