Omni-Wheel Line Follower

    Hi, I recently built a differential wheeled line follower using 2 dc geared motors and basic code to program the microcontroller(Arduino Uno) and L293 motor driver shield.

    I'd now like to build an Arduino-based line following robot using 4 omnidirectional wheels e.g. http://store.kornylak.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=FXA309, and to implement a PID algorithm for smoother navigation of the line.

    I'm not sure whether to use servo motors (modified for continous rotation) or dc geared motors. I've never used servos before. Are there any tips or advice you can give for my project/research? Thanks for any help.
