These competitions encompass various disciplines, such as programming, electronics, control systems, and prototyping, often beginning with developing a mobile platform. This paper focuses on designing and implementing an omnidirectional mecanum platform, encompassing aspects of mechatronics, mechanics, electronics, kinematics models, and control. Additionally, a simulation model is introduced and compared with the physical robot, providing a means to validate the proposed platform.engEngineering educationIndustry 4.0Omnidirectional robotPrototypingSimulationKinematicsControl theoryEducation 4.0Robotics competitionconference paper10.1007/978-3-031-47269-5_132367-3389
