What encoder are you using there?
Are you going to use three for truly absolute positioning, or just two and assume your robot won't slide sideways? (I assume your drivetrain is skidsteer of some sort)
I can testify that Max has been talking about this for ages. At least a few months before build.

For those of you who are wondering what is going on, this is a navigation plan. Essentially by using encoders on omniwheels set aside for this purpose, you can get much more accurate navigation then counting the rotations of your drive wheels, because a lot of slippage will be eliminated. Theoretically.
