  • Patent number: 8459383
    Abstract: A spherical drive system for a vehicle providing movement in multiple directions. The spherical drive system can be maneuvered either by a system of driven omnidirectional wheels or by an electromagnetic field. One embodiment includes two pairs of omnidirectional drive wheels working in complement to each other providing multi-directional movement by way of electronic motors which are wired to a controller. A spherical tire will reside within the shell and will be in direct contact with the omnidirectional drive and stabilizer wheels. The spherical tire will work in tandem with the omnidirectional drive and stabilizer wheels moving the vehicle in the appropriate direction. Another embodiment is driven by an electromagnetic field created with magnets placed inside the spherical wheel and electromagnets placed on an outer shell. The electromagnetic field will drive the spherical wheel moving the vehicle in the appropriate direction.
