Mobile robots have received a great deal of research in recent years. A
significant amount of research has been published in many aspects related to
mobile robots. Most of the research is devoted to design and develop some
control techniques for robot motion and path planning. A large number of
researchers have used kinematic models to develop motion control strategy for
mobile robots. Their argument and assumption that these models are valid if the
robot has low speed, low acceleration and light load. However, dynamic
modelling of mobile robots is very important as they are designed to travel at
higher speed and perform heavy duty work. This paper presents and discusses a
new approach to develop a dynamic model and control strategy for wheeled mobile
robot which I modelled as a rigid body that roles on two wheels and a castor.
The motion control strategy consists of two levels. The first level is dealing
with the dynamic of the system and denoted as Low level controller. The second
level is developed to take care of path planning and trajectory generation
