Design and Fabrication of a 360-Degree Rotating Omnidirectional Vehicle for Enhanced Mobility in Confined Spaces
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This project focuses on designing and building a 360-degree rotating device for robotics, surveillance, and industrial use. It employs DC gear motors for smooth, electronically controlled rotation. Compact, cost-effective, and versatile, the system is ideal for tight spaces requiring high mobility. Unlike traditional vehicles restricted by turning radius, this design uses omni-directional wheels powered by individual DC motors. A microcontroller coordinates wheel speed and direction, enabling movement in any direction and on-the-spot rotation. This zero-turning radius makes it highly effective in confined environments like warehouses and hospitals. The project aims to enhance movement flexibility, reduce space for directional shifts, and boost efficiency. The prototype demonstrates the device's potential for revolutionizing mobile robotic systems with improved maneuverability and performance in space-constrained settings.
