Sumario:This paper evaluates and corrects systematic odometry errors in a compact omnidirectional mobile platform equipped with three omni-wheels driven by digital servomotors featuring velocity control capabilities. Compared to differential-drive platforms, omnidirectional platforms offer the significant advantage of being able to translate in any direction while rotating simultaneously. The motion capabilities of the platform have been experimentally evaluated, and its systematic motion errors analyzed and corrected. The final motion capabilities achieved confirm that a basic three-wheeled omnidirectional platform driven by servomotors is suitable for use as a testbench for control algorithms and trajectory-tracking experiments.
