The Swingarm Odometry Pod (48mm Wheel) improves the robot's localization accuracy during autonomous operation. The sensor uses a unique internal design instead of traditional gears, ensuring smooth rotation and eliminating backlash. It comes fully assembled, includes all mounting hardware, and is designed to fit into a 43mm-wide 1120 Series U-Channel. A 48mm diameter wheel with a high-precision encoder allows it to overcome small obstacles and provide reliable data for tracking the chassis's motion.
- Weight: 121g (including spring, wire, and hardware)
- Wheel Material: Plastic with rubber rollers
- Wheel Stiffness: 50A
- Encoder Connector Type: 4-Pos JST PH [FH-MC]
- Encoder Resolution: 2000 events per revolution
Ideal for FTC and other robotic applications, providing accurate motion tracking even with wheel slip or complex maneuverability. Using one or more odometry pods allows for correct chassis localization and control of autonomous motion algorithms.
