摘要：This paper introduces a omnidirectional mobile robot based on Mecanum wheel, which is used for conveying heavy load in a small space of the automatic warehousing logistics center. Then analyzes and establishes the omnidirectional chassis inverse and forward kinematic model. In order to improve the performance of motion, the paper proposes the optimal PID controller based on differential evolution algorithm. Finally, through MATLAB simulation, the results show that the kinematic model of mobile robot chassis is correct, further more the controller optimized by the DE algorithm working better than the traditional Z-N PID tuned. So the optimal scheme is reasonable and feasible, which has a value for engineering applications.
