Re: How Do mecanum wheels handle the bumps?

When developing a design for this years robot our team questioned mecanum wheels' ability to push or pin and avoid being pushed or pinned.

In the end we decided to implement a crab drive. While slightly more complicated we felt that it would give us a pushing advantage.

My question is whether or not these asumptions were accurate and if so to what extent?

What other advantages or dissadvantages do mecanums have over some other forms of drive trains?
