An autonomous omnidirectional drive unit including a drive chassis supported on two independent, parallel, and coaxial drive wheels, actuated by two drive motors; a transport chassis the central area of which is superimposed on and connected to the drive chassis through a rotary joint, the transport chassis being supported on multiple omnidirectional wheels. The drive unit further includes a rotating device, actuated by a rotary motor, integrated in the rotary joint between the transport chassis and the drive chassis, which determines the angular position of the drive chassis with respect to the transport chassis, and a control device configured for adjusting at least the two drive motors and the rotary motor in a coordinated manner to obtain omnidirectional movement of the transport chassis.
