The process of design, construction, planning and evaluation of an omnidirectional mobile robot is presented. The main objective is to evaluate the robot operationin navigation tasks using odometry and wall following by comparison with FESTO Robotino® robot. The designed robot uses 3 DC motors with an encoder, 3 omnidirectional wheels, motors PID controllers and 6 optical distance sensors. The control is implemented in Labview and the signals from the sensors and actuators are acquired with an Arduino and transmitted via Bluetooth. The results show a behavior similar to that of the Robotino robot.
