A fuzzy logic controller for an omni-directional, autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) implementing Mecanum wheels to achieve directional control of its motion is presented. Omni-directional robotic platforms advantage over conventional designs is that they are capable of performing tasks in congested environments. The AGV's behaviour during navigation is controlled using a fuzzy logic controller, with slip detection.
