12:13 AM goppo: anyone know if omni wheels or mecanum wheels can be used in rough terrains?
12:19 AM goppo: or are they designed for smooth hard floors?
03:07 AM rue_shop2: definitly smooth
05:04 AM veverak: yes
05:04 AM veverak: definetly smooth
05:12 AM Jak_o_Shadows: Unless you have GIANT wheels
05:13 AM mumptai: they kinda still work as wheels in soft carpet and uneven florrs, but the passive subwheels have significant problems as they are small in comparison to uneven features and don't roll that freely
05:14 AM veverak: and in case the terrain is not only rough, but also dirty
05:14 AM veverak: the small wheels clog

10:51 PM Jak_o_Shadows: Uses 3 compare interrupts
10:59 PM flav0r: HEY HEY !!
