diving to 4 directions

[lukevanoort]

The definition of holonomic that I am familiar with is that all possible degrees of freedom must be controlled--but not necessarily at the same time. Thus, IMHO, Killough/Other omni-wheel designs/Some (67/111/469 style) Swerves/Mecanum = holonomic, 118 style swerves = omnidirectional.

In 2004 our team won awards for using an omni drive system, http://team1322.org/omni_drive.htm . Our system worked very well, we could go all directions including rotate. The trouble is finding students that can drive it. Their is too many directions avalable and then have to keep up with the game and points. In our system we solved the traction problem by adding rows of wheels. We could actual go fast and have a good amount of power.
