Given a four-wheel differential drive robot, what are the kinematics for wheel control? What are the wheel speeds to move the G.C with and ?

Similar to the 2-wheel differential drive:

Then, we write as:

We have:

Thus, we have

The example below shows the derivation process to get the equation for the left wheel to drive the G.C at and .

Note that because of friction, the actual motion becomes different from the ideal case, so we usually use approximate motion model, e.g.:
