Omni Wheels Survey

[Ryan F.]

Hi, I'm starting this thread to get a feel of how well omni-wheels worked for the teams that actually used them. I've been looking at many possible things for out robot for next year, this being one of them. The one problem I've always wondered about is the omni wheels making the robot easily pushable. I'm wondering if they have the same effect of casters, where they allow another robot to push you around easily. If anyone out there with omni wheels could tell me about your experiances with them and especially if you got into pushing matches with other robots, that would be appreciated.
