Non-Holonomic Constraints § Non-holonomic constraints limit the possible incremental movements within the configuration space of the robot. § Robots with differential drive or synchro- drive move on a circular trajectory and cannot move sideways. § XR-4000 or Mecanum-wheeled robots can move sideways (they have no non- holonomic constraints). 19

Holonomic vs. Non-Holonomic § Non-holonomic constraints reduce the control space with respect to the current configuration § E.g., moving sideways is impossible. § Holonomic constraints reduce the configuration space. § E.g., a car and a trailer (not all angles between car and trailer are possible) 20

Drives with Non-Holonomic Constraints § Synchro-drive § Differential drive § Ackermann drive 21

Drives without Non-Holonomic Constraints § XR4000 drive § Mecanum wheels 22

Dead Reckoning and Odometry § Estimating the motion based on the issued controls/wheel encoder readings § Integrated over time 23

Summary § Introduced different types of drives for wheeled robots § Math to describe the motion of the basic drives given the speed of the wheels § Non-holonomic Constraints § Odometry and dead reckoning 24
