As part of my MSc thesis, it is to design and build a robot integrating a control system and navigation system. Essentially, it's an omnidirectional robot with 3 omni-wheels at 120 degrees apart.
It will have a couple microcontrollers interfaced to an EPIA mini-ITX mainboard and some other bells and whistles.
I just sorted out the inverse kinematics today (proof/derivation) etc, and will be simulating it shortly and am also working on the PWM motor controller circuitry. I've just about ordered the balance bits I need to get the EPIA running, again...
So, long story short, have you built a robot yourself? It can be a micromouse, to a beerbot...share the gory details here![]()
