Claim 29:
30. 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, the movement subsystem operative to cause the OMS device to move on a surface that supports the OMS device, the movement subsystem comprising a plurality of wheels and one or more motors coupled to drive the plurality of wheels;
a sensor subsystem coupled to the body, the sensor subsystem operative to sense a position of the foot of the user during use and to sense a position of the OMS device during operation thereof in an operational environment;
at least one nontransitory processor-readable storage medium that stores at least one of instructions or data; and
at least one processor operatively coupled to the at least one nontransitory processor-readable storage medium, the movement subsystem, and the sensor subsystem, in operation, the at least one processor:
receives sensor data from the sensor subsystem; and
controls the at least one motor of the movement subsystem to drive the plurality of wheels to position the OMS device under the foot of the user while constraining the user's overall movement to a confined area to provide substantially stationary locomotion.
