Abstract :
This paper is devoted to the dynamic analysis of real redundant mobile robots, for which, two types of constraints characterizing ideal redundant robots, are not satisfied: kinematic constraints related to the contact conditions between the wheels and the ground, and the geometric constraints related to the coordination of the wheel orientation angles. In order to assure a good trajectory tracking, an output feedback linearizing control law is derived and illustrated by simulation results
