Hi all,
I haven't been able to find anything on the net about a Lego implementation
of an orthogonal drive system using only motors (i.e. no pnumatics).
Orthogonal is when your your chassis can go straight forward and back, and
also side to side, only. It would involve raising and lowering a second set
of wheels; hopefully to be done only electrically.
Does anybody know of any sites with this type of setup?
TIA,
--Electro--

| Hi David, I have built a robot that does this for a university 'robot maze solver' project. My solution is big, ugly, very slow and pretty complex. It could probably be improved a lot if it was redesigned. However, it uses 3 motors (1 for (...) (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
