2x2 Steering Robot

Advanced mobile robotics platform with decoupled steering and drive control.

Robotics Mechatronics Control Engineering Mobile App

The 2x2 Steering Robot is a conceptual mobile robot platform, developed for ultimate maneuverability. Each of the two wheels has its own steering and drive motor, allowing the robot to drive traditionally, perform crab steering, turn on the spot (zero-radius turn) and assume any arbitrary driving angle in between.

The mechanical structure is built from sheet metal components, modeled in SolidWorks and produced with CNC technology. I created all technical drawings and supervised the production process. Dual motor drivers and battery packs are applied, with safety logic for automatic shutdown on signal loss.

The wireless control is realized via Bluetooth, coupled to a self-developed Android app. Wheel angles and speeds are coordinated via mathematical transformations, ensuring the robot always moves accurately in the desired direction.
