  • Abstract
    This paper is devoted to the kinematic analysis of mobile robots equipped with centred orientating wheels. The problems of mobility and directionality are addressed and it is shown that such robots are omnidirectional. A state space formulation is proposed allowing it to describe the robot motion, even in the neighbourhood of singular configurations
