Abstract

This paper introduces omnidirectional Mecanum wheels and discusses the kinematic relations of a platform used four Mecanum wheels. Forward and Inverse kinematic is been derived in this paper. Experimental and analytically results are obtained and 8 different motions without changing the robot's orientation is achieved.
