Re: Autonomous: CMUCam or dead reckoning?

you now have no clue where you're at cause your wheels have slid

Unfortunately for us, or maybe not, we can't slide. Our wheels simply do not allow it. If hit from the side we have two options: fall over with a loud crash, or start figuring out how to fix a dented side rail. I am interested in the flywheel idea; wouldn't it be better to place two accelerometers 90 degrees from each other to gauge hits?
