Abstract

A caster assembly that includes a caster wheel, a lock member, a pedal, and a position sensor. The lock member can engage the caster wheel. Movement of the pedal towards a depressed position can cause engagement of the lock member against the caster wheel to resist or prevent rotation of the caster wheel. Movement of the pedal towards a released position can separate the lock member from the caster wheel to permit rotation of the caster wheel. The position sensor can detect a position of the pedal.
