This paper is focused on the development of a novel design of omnidirectional all-terrain mobile robot. The locomotion is achieved by screw propulsion and can handle a wider variety of terrain than ordinary robot using a logical combination of the angular speeds of each screw. A kinematic model of the proposed robot is analyzed and CAD models...

The paper addresses the multi-agent path planning (MPP) of mobile agents with multiple goals taking into consideration the kinematic constraints of each agent. The "Swing and Dock" (SaD) robotic system being discussed uses discrete locomotion, where agents swing around fixed pins and dock with their mounting legs to realize displacement from...
