An omnidirectional unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) is able to move in any planar direction regardless of its current pose. To date, nearly all designs and analyses of omnidirectional robots have considered the case of motion on flat, smooth terrain. This paper presents the design, analysis, and prototype development of a man portable omnidirectional UGV designed for operation in rough terrain. Design guidelines are presented that are derived from geometric constraints ...
