Robot Accuracy when moving fast VS moving slow on an FLL competition field with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime
In this tutorial we demonstrate how accurate the robot is when we are moving it slow vs when moving it fast. The point of the tutorial is to show that moving slowly is generally much more accurate. It is not accurate enough for a FIRST LEGO League competition, but if you have to move without the use of the sensors you can at least move slow.
How to use this tutorial?
Build the robot, download the program and experiment with it. See what are the results for your robot. If you have a SPIKE prime instead of Robot Inventor try to translate the program for SPIKE prime. It should be the same.
Scratch (Word Blocks) program to move slow and fast to a near mission model with SPIKE Prime and without sensors - LSAv3.5.1.llsp3
In this program we demonstrate the difference between moving the robot fast and slow. After starting the program, you can press the right button to see the robot move fast, or you can press the left button to see the robot move slow. The program runs indefinitely, so you can keep testing the robot, without restarting the program. Make sure the robot has stopped moving before you press any button.
This program was intended for and tested on the Gazon robot
10 runs on robot accuracy when moving fast VS moving slow on an FLL Competition field with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime
This videos tutorials demonstrated the robot accuracy in 10 runs one after the other. 5 of them are with the robot moving slow and 5 are with the robot moving fast. See for your self what is the accuracy achieved only with the move blocks of the robot.
