Abstract
A vehicle includes an omnidirectional drive system configured to provide a movement of the vehicle, wherein the omnidirectional drive system includes a multitude of omnidirectional drive means, wherein each of the multitude of omnidirectional drive means includes a decentralized computing means and an associated actuator set up for providing a movement contribution for the movement. The vehicle includes a controlling means for providing a controlling command to the omnidirectional drive system containing an instruction for performing a movement. Each of the decentralized computing means is configured to determine a target movement for the vehicle, and to determine, from the target movement, a control of the associated actuator for a target movement contribution, and to determine an offset and to correct the same.
