Thanks Eitan. This was quite informative. Yes, we do accept that our robot is not using standard motors. It has got some amount of difference in motor configuration. It does not go straight as expected. The fact is, it won't be easy for us to change the motors. Is there any other way round by which we can tweak some parameters to make odometry more effective?
