IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!! WE WILL CONQUER THE WORLD WITH THESE!!!!!! (Part 2) THE MOVIE

Looks great guys!

One question though-
How much traction do you get, and will that be an issue when playing defense/being pushed?

[Marcel]

Are you guys going to put a shooter on that thing or is it going to harvest. I would suggest a shooter because with that kind of wheel design, it would be much eassier to aim with.

Since we're sharing videos, here's team 95's test chassis, taken sometime last week:

Video of Team 95's Test Chassis

(the gyro feedback has been fixed since this video, it's much smoother now)

It's a holonomic drive using omniwheels in an H-pattern, with some additional friction wheels on the corner to assist in bot-pushing and ramp climbing. We broke this one down, however, and are rebuilding the system in our final bot (integrating in a ball harvester and ball shooter).

WOW

Thats pretty amazing. Last year we tried something like that but was not able to complete it. Good Job. Good luck wth the rest of your season

When you play the movie the author comes up as Stephen Shuler (or however you spell it). Also that isn't omni drive, its jester or mecanum drive as Richard calls it. Looks great though. You shouldn’t have any problem with out maneuvering other robots but you might want to stay out of pushing matches. I like the HALO setup, great idea!

I love the idea of omniwheels and all, but in my opinion it just makes for a robot that can get pushed around easier... just my $0.02, so how good is this setup at pushing or on the flipside how much better is it from getting pushed
