Re: Omni Wheels Survey

Team 1083 and 180 both used omni wheels to make a holonomic drive train. It worked very well; we rarely were pushed, as we were so much more maneuverable than anything else out there. Also, unlike casters which just "sit" there and can rotate easily, our wheels were attached directly to the motors and gear box, so pushing them was not as easy as casters.

I highly recommend holonomic drive when you want to be maneuverable.
