hi frnds, i need to build a 4 wheeled robot or rather a AGV to carry a 1 m long and 75mm diam pipe (10 kg)which can move it to mentioned co-ordinates in a area of 20m X 20m. for example when asked for it should move to say (10.5m,2m) used to test ultrasnic sensors.....now i hv few doubts:
i) i wanted the vehicle to be able to turn its wheels atleast 45deg so it can achieve all co-ordinates...so are specific DC stepper motors wit encoders enough to achieve tat???how many of motors shud i use?
II) i wonder what could be the shape of the vehicle as it has to carry a pipe of 10 kg vertically ...how can i make it stable?
III)Is it possible tat i use mecanum wheels to achieve lateral motion. if yes how wil it be affected by the load ..???
