Method Detail

rotate

void rotate(double angle)

Rotates the NXT robot the specified number of degrees; direction determined by the sign of the parameter. Method returns when rotation is done.

Parameters:

angle - The angle to rotate in degrees. A positive value rotates left, a negative value right (clockwise).

rotate

void rotate(double angle,
            boolean immediateReturn)

Rotates the NXT robot the specified number of degrees; direction determined by the sign of the parameter. Method returns immediately if immediateReturn flag is true, otherwise returns when rotation is done.

Parameters:

angle - The angle to rotate in degrees. A positive value rotates left, a negative value right (clockwise).

immediateReturn - If true, method returns immediately, otherwise blocks until rotation is complete.

setAngularSpeed

void setAngularSpeed(double speed)

sets the rotation speed of the robot (the angular velocity of the rotate() methods)

Parameters:

speed - in degrees per second

getAngularSpeed

double getAngularSpeed()

Returns the value of the rotation speed

Returns:

the rotate speed in degrees per second

getMaxAngularSpeed

double getMaxAngularSpeed()

returns the maximum value of the rotation speed;

Returns:

max rotation speed

setAngularAcceleration

void setAngularAcceleration(double acceleration)

Sets the acceleration at which the robot will accelerate at the start of a move and decelerate at the end of a move. Acceleration is measured in units/second^2. e.g. If wheel diameter is cm, then acceleration is cm/sec^2.

If acceleration is set during a move it will not be in used for the current move, it will be in effect with the next move.

Parameters:

acceleration - in chosen units/second^2

getAngularAcceleration

double getAngularAcceleration()

Returns the acceleration at which the robot accelerates at the start of a move and decelerates at the end of a move.

Returns:

acceleration in chosen units/second^2

rotateRight

void rotateRight()

rotateLeft

void rotateLeft()
