Original abstract

This contribution summarizes the results of work carried out during the proposal and simulation modeling 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; incorporating an idea of skew wheel angles modeling having a significant impact on the real robot trajectory. 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. This work was done under the terms of the research plan "Simulative modeling of mechatronic systems" on the Institute of Production Machines, Systems and Robotics; FME, BUT.

Czech abstract

Tento příspěvěk shrnuje výsledky prací během návrhu a simulační modelování v souvislosti s plánováním dráhy autonomního lokomočního robotu ve známém nebo částečně známém prostředí. Za účelem vytvoření přesného návrhu a vhodného dimenzování pohonných jednotek zde byla vytvořena simulace dynamických vlastností podvozku se všesměrovými koly v systému Mathworks MATLAB 7. Je zde obsažen kinematický a dynamický model celé platformy, dále je zde vymezena možnost simulace nesouososti kol vzniklých při montáži, což má vliv na výslednou dráhu robotu.
