Week 4-2 Parallel rotation

The second type of rotation that we will handle is parallel rotation:

This is the most common way of rotation for four wheels vehicles like cars.

The main idea is to turn the two wheels with different speed, so for a period of time the distance traveled by the faster wheel is more than the slower wheel as a result we don’t have straight movement but curve movement.

To apply this kind of rotation in a bidirectional robot like we have we used this circuit.

The circuit is very similar to a circle.

Ls will try to apply the swing rotation in this circuit but they will find it very painful, the great surprise I had that ls find by themselves the solution which lays in the Steering parameter we already see in the move block which is responsible for turning a bidirectional robot like a bicycle (well this is the example I used may be you will find better examples :=))

You can try other circuit like a snake body circuit for example.
