ABSTRACT
We proposed the design of an omni-direction robot which embeds 4 spherical wheels. The wheels are connected to 4 DC motors and controlled through an L298N boards which is powered with 2 LIPO batteries. A low-cost Arduino board oversees the system by controlling the motion and speed of the motor.
The wheels of the robot integrate an omni-directional mechanism and all components have been designed in Fusion 360 (Autodesk ®), manufactured with a 3D printer (Ender 5) an then assemble and integrated with the hardware and software of the system.
Preliminary tests show that the proposed solution is promising and provide a good reference for the manufacturing of low-cost robot.
