Faster Line Tracking

1. The robot spun in circles with a slight hesitations when it reached the black line.
2. The robot was moving too fast to properly register the black line, so it got lost on the right side of the line.
3. Put the sensor closer to the robot's axis of rotation at the back so it can register the line better.
4. The turning centers are underneath the wheels.
5. If we did not change the programming, the robot would track the line behind it, which would be pointless.
6. Since the sensor is on the center of the turn, it will stay in the center of the robot and remain on the black line longer.
7.
i. done
ii. 30% power, 24 seconds
iii. 91% power, 14 seconds
iv. 14/24 = 58.33%
8. There is a left backwards swing turn and a right backwards swing turn.
9. Right and left are dependent upon the person and the direction they are facing. Define left and right from the direction it is going, not the direction it is facing. Or you could say that Motor C is the left wheel and motor B is the right wheel.
