Legomindstorm Experiment

3. Lego Mindstorm wheel

Robot Speed Experiment:

After learning the basics of lego Mindstorm, we used our acquired skills to learn how to calculate the distance a wheel moves. First we measured the circumference of the wheel. We then put a ruler next to the robot to measure the distance it traveled vs what the program said. We did three different trials for each power and time values. After completing the 9 trials(3 different power settings, each with three trials) we calculated the margin of error. We used the obvserved distance & the distance calcuated by the MindStorm program
