%0 Journal Article %T Design of the Dual Offset Active Caster Wheel for Holonomic Omni-directional Mobile Robots %A Woojin Chung %A Chang-bae Moon %A Changbae Jung %A Jiyong Jin %J International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems %D 2011 %I InTech %X It is shown how a holonomic and omni-directional mobile robot is designed towards indoor public services. Dual offset steerable wheels with orthogonal velocity components are proposed. The proposed wheel provides precise positioning and reliable navigation performance as well as durability. A fabricated prototype is introduced, then, an experiment is carried out. %K Holonomic Omni-directional Robot %K Mobile Robot %K Active Caster Wheel %U http://www.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/design-of-the-dual-offset-active-caster-wheel-for-holonomic-omni-directional-mobile-robots
