Design and Realization of Mobile Robot Driven by Omnidirectional Wheels

Abstract

Omnidirectional mobile robot refers to a robot technology that can move in any direction on the ground. Aiming at the problems of complex control, low driving efficiency, and poor carrying capacity of ordinary omnidirectional mobile robots, an omnidirectional wheel-driven mobile robot was proposed. The robot can achieve traverse characteristic motion with zero gyration radius without changing its attitude. Through the kinematic analysis of the mobile robot equipped with this wheelset, the omnidirectional motion function of efficient driving is verified. Prototype experiments show that the robot can effectively improve space utilization and intelligence in scenarios with limited space.
