Abstract

This paper details the design and construction process of a holonomic robot with four omnidirectional wheels for educational, low-cost, and scalable purposes. Aiming for each student to be able to build and program their own robot, this is seen as a cognitive tool that allows them to build and rebuild the perceived world through personal experience, achieving an incremental dynamic in the construction of knowledge.

As for the robot's control system, it is embedded in a development board that supports a free OS, which allows concurrent programming using threads in different programming languages, which supports developing component-oriented control software, facilitating the incorporation of future improvements on the software, actuator systems, and sensors controlled by it. The criteria of functionality, cost, simplicity, and duration were prioritized for the design and selection of components. As a result of this work, a robot was obtained with the peculiarities of being able to be built and programmed by the students, providing the facilities for its scalability and incorporation of new features of both software and hardware.
