How the Caster Wheel Works
The caster wheel works as a passive support wheel:
- The wheel rotates freely in any direction
- Supports the robot chassis while drive wheels provide movement
- Automatically aligns with the robot’s direction of motion
This reduces friction and improves maneuverability during turns.
