I am working on the navigation problem for a tracked vehicle. The dead-reckoning based on drive motor encoders does not work really well because of the slippage and skid when the robot turns. I do not have much experience working with tracked vehicles. Are there any good solutions to this problem? Have anyone used those absolute velocity sensor or accelerometers to measure the absolute motion of the vehicle directly? Any good or bad experience with them? Has anyone used some cheap gyros, such as those used in model planes, to measure the orientation of a robot? Any experience or reference with them? Thanks a lot.
