Abstract :
This paper includes implementation of velocity control algorithm on an Omni-directional swerve drive robot. The algorithm enables the motors of the robot to maintain their velocities, even at varying voltage levels and at varying load. This allows the robot motion to be smooth and precise. The algorithm is based upon feedback mechanism.
