The Ping or Sharp Radar Control will help you with autonomous navigation :)

DJ, I've had the Ping and Radar control working fine in the past - but now with new Tank treads,Bob only reverses in small increments then tries to bulldoze his way forward. Is there any way I can extend how far back he reverses before turning ?

There must be a cool way of controlling Radar and Ping via a connection to a script run - ie Robot runs autonomous then follows an EZ script (if Ping distance is too short - then reverses back a set distance). I'm currently studying your script radar example - Ping_wait command which looks like the go but I'm not sure how to then tell Bob to reverse

ping_wait(d15,d16,lower,155)

sensor stops

reverse(100)

..sorry but I am a primitive at this stuff.Any guidance appreciated.

Cheers

hazbot,

What I do Know that what every you put in the bracket, 1000=1sec,2000=2sec,3k-3sec,4k-4sec etc.

So,reverse(1000) go backward for 1 sec.

Hope that this helped.

In the ping/sharp radar settings, there is a drop down for how many ms to turn/reverse. increase that value by selecting a larger number... Maybe 3000 is good for you? Or 5000

Thanks - I'll give it a try...
