Look closely to this picture from the famous Escher and try to think of a way to build this in LEGO. Andrew Lipson found a way to do it in: Escher's "ascending and descending" in LEGO

Challenges I haven't dealt with yet.
Cars with automated gearing. The idea is to use the resisting force that
slows down the car or even blocks the motor for switching gears. A very nice
demonstration model is constructed by Jeff Jahr
Continuous variable transmission. Explanations and one solution is given
by Rob Stehlik
Omnidirectional wheel. Mark Warren pointed me to Acroname's
omnidirectional wheel. Their Palm Pilot Robot Kit (PPRK) uses these wheels as part of a Killough
platform. This might provide another way to create wheels for Lego® holonomic
platforms.
