Omni Directional Wheels

Omni-directional wheels are designed to allow movement in any direction without needing to change the orientation of the skateboard. This can give riders more freedom to maneuver and perform tricks.

These wheels typically have small rollers on the sides, which enable lateral movement. They’re often used in specialty boards or in setups like electric skateboards for enhanced agility.

Are you thinking about using them for a specific purpose or just curious about how they work?

how do omni directional wheels work?
Omni directional wheels, also known as mecanum wheels or Swedish wheels, have a unique design that allows them to move in any direction without changing the orientation of the wheel itself. These wheels consist of small rollers set at an angle around the wheel circumference, which enables them to move in a sideways or diagonal direction when rotated. By controlling the speed and direction of rotation of each wheel independently, a vehicle using omni directional wheels can move with incredible agility and perform complex maneuvers, such as strafing, rotating in place, and moving in a curved path. This unique design makes omni directional wheels ideal for applications such as robotics, material handling, and mobile platforms that require precise and versatile movement capabilities.
