Name 2 types of holonomic (drives sideways) drivetrains that are not swerve. Describe the wheel configuration of each. Bonus if you can get all 4 listed in the response (there's more but I ran out of room).
Meccanum: Like tank but with meccanum wheels, can be pushed
H Drive: Meccanum with an extra omni wheel perpendicular in the center for strafing
Kiwi: Three gearboxes with 3 omni wheels.
Crab: Poor man's swerve. One azimuth motor controls all wheels, so they are always rotated to the same angle. Therefore, cannot rotate its heading like a swerve drive would.
