Abstract

This contribution summarizes the results of work carried out during the proposal and simulation modelling of the mobile robot undercarriage equipped with omnidirectional wheels.

In order to make an accurate design and appropriate dimensioning of driving units, there was carried out a simulation of dynamic properties of the undercarriage with omnidirectional wheels in Mathworks MATLAB 7.

There is described a kinematical and a dynamical model of the whole robot platform. By using this functionality we can relatively overcome the problem of miss-alignments of the wheels during the assembly. Results of the simulation were summarized in form of a state space model of the whole robot platform.
