Transportation in warehouses and production workshops is a matter of urgency today. Most warehouses arrange routes for circulation along the shelves, transportation vehicles will move on this road to perform the task of exporting or importing goods. Routes will be arranged to move in one direction because vehicles do not have enough space to turn around in cramped warehouses. This causes many difficulties in planning the trajectory for transportation vehicles, especially self-propelled vehicles. In order to have an appropriate transportation plan, it is necessary to solve many problems, including: reasonable transport equipment, sufficient number of devices, optimal route layout, algorithm of operation center for Positioning and Navigation of transportation equipment,... This study proposes a method for transportation using an omnidirectional automated guided vehicle (AGV). The AGV's omnidirectional mobility is supported by the mecanum wheels. This study consists of two parts, the first part focuses on kinematic modeling for mecanum wheels and extends to robot’s platform using four mecanum wheels. Part two proposes a diagram to calculate the errors of the robot compared to a reference tracking line, design a control law based on the Lyapunov stability criterion. The stability of the control law is verified and confirmed by simulation on MATLAB environment.
