here is a teaser of just our frame!!!:yikes: http://www.liberty.k12.mo.us/hs/libertyrobotics/robotics/robot.JPG
Cool design for an Omni drive. Have you done any programming for it yet?
Joey
hollistic drive looks great!
Looks good. Check your bumpers - there was a post in Q&A just yesterday I believe that prohibits mitered pool noodles into the corners, even if the wood doesn’t extend into the corners.
Yes there is programming for the prototype that is setup the same. And can you tell us where you found that information for the bumper?
very cool, I am assuming the electronics are mounted above this piece?? if not thats a pretty tight squeeze lol!
looks sweet though!!
Can you get it to go in all directions? If you need help, let me know. I worked with an omni drive vex robot over the summer.
Joey
there will be a plate on the underneath the frame (beneath the motors) and on the battery plate
we don’t need help with programming but thank you and yes it does go in every direction.
You mean this one, I believe.
If you’re interested…see video below.
In the video our robot is only doing a third of what it’s capable of. The first half is on ceramic tile and then the second half shows the capabilities on carpet. Our programmer estimates the top speed to reach 15ft/s.

The video on your page doesnt work. Might want to have someone look into that.
Joey
click on our website link and then go to 2008 competition and watch the video from there. If it doesn’t come up you have to run activex control to see (we have to here).
Actually the direct link was just entered improperly. If you do want to directly download and view the file, try this one:

Otherwise you can go their website as described above to view it embedded in the page.
thank you for doing that!
very agile, but are you guys going to have a way to ether hurdle or heard the ball around
Its gonna be fun taking all them bumpers of to weigh in but otherwise it looks like a nice machine.
this is just a teaser you’ll have to wait and see the finished product. That video is the testing of the prototype.
Can you post a video of it going full speed?
Joey
if you want to see it going full speed come see us at the Kansas city or Denver regionals!
