!! Robot Geometry
Robots come in all shapes and sizes, and can have one or more wheels, tank treads, flippers or propellers, etc.
For example, for wheeled robots there's designs like:
* tank treads
* two-wheeled balancing robots
* two-wheeled differential drive robots with casters (like the [KD01] or [SR04])
* four to six to eight wheeled robots (like the [KR01])
* [Ackermann steering|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry] (car style) robots, possibly using a radio-controlled car chassis
* mars rovers with rocker-bogie or triple-rocker designs
But robots don't need wheels, nor do they even need to move. There are flying robots, swimming and diving robots, walking, crawling and jumping robots. Each poses its own set of challenges and rewards.
