Position model
Model
Collaboration diagram for Position model:

The position model simulates a mobile robot base. It can drive in one of two modes; either differential, i.e. able to control its speed and turn rate by driving left and roght wheels like a Pioneer robot, or omnidirectional, i.e. able to control each of its three axes independently.

Note
Since Stage-1.6.5 the odom property has been removed. Stage will generate a warning if odom is defined in your worldfile. See localization_origin instead.
Details

drive "diff", "omni" or "car"
select differential-steer model(like a Pioneer), omnidirectional mode or carlike (velocity and steering angle). omega:<float> ]
Specify the initial velocity of the model. Note that if the model hits an obstacle, its velocity will be set to zero.
