Claim 30:
31. A method of operating an omnidirectional mobility system that provides stationary omnidirectional motion for a user, the omnidirectional mobility system comprising first and second omnidirectional mobility system (OMS) devices, each of the OMS devices comprising a body that includes a top surface that supports a foot of the user, a movement subsystem coupled to the body that is operative to cause the OMS device to move on a surface that supports the OMS device, and a sensor subsystem coupled to the body that is operative to sense at least a position of the foot of the user during use, the method comprising:
receiving sensor data from the sensor subsystem of each of the OMS devices; and
responsive to the received sensor data, controlling the movement subsystem of each of the OMS devices to position each of the OMS devices under one foot of the user while constraining the user's overall movement to a confined area to provide substantially stationary locomotion.
