A few Questions about Omni Wheels....

[kSniper]

Alright, first off let me apologize for creating yet another Omni Wheel, Crab Drive, or over all Drive Train thread because I am sure some of you are getting tired of them.

So the idea of using Omni wheels has been thrown around with members of my team but no one on the team has any real tested direct experience with Omni Wheels, if there was a year to ues them this seems to be the one. AndyMark seels a metal set for $375 that are rubberized but I have heard those may have trouble on the carpet.

Basically I am wondering what everyones thoughts are about Omni wheel vs Tank vs Swerve and if you have any links to follow examples that would be much appreciated.

We have not dove into it yet but I would like to get as much information as possible before discussions begin! Rather then post this in an existing thread I thought making my own would be easier.

So yea if you guys could help point me in the direction of reliable information as well as post your own opinions tested and non because your opinions mean alot to me in determining the best path for my team.

Our main concerns reguarding drive trains is being able to manuever easily and efficiantly as well as speedy and agile. Suggestions, thoughts?

Thanks again so much for your help!
