"Turning"

Submitted by Randy Steele on 15 July, 2011 - 20:26
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
