Lesson: "Turning"
Overview:
The goal of this lesson is to learn to maneuver an NXT robot through a variety of turn types using the "Turning" video lesson from the "NXT Video Trainer 2.0" product from Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Academy.
Objectives:
Students will be able to:
1. Write a NXT-G program for a robot to maneuver with turns
2. Control the turning response of a robot through the NXT-G Move block parameters
3. Explain how each parameter in the Move block configuration panel impacts turning behavior
4. Write an NXT-G program for a robot to maneuver with precision swing turns
5. Write an NXT-G program for a robot to maneuver with precision point turns
6. Write an NXT-G program for a robot which combines turning and sensor response
