Testing - Building A Robot: The Chassis
The main tests that we want to see are, how fast does this magician chassis move forward and backward? What is the comparison between using 1 motor to turn left vs both motors for a differential turn? And to see in general how fast and accurate (can it drive straight?) the platform is.
My table is limited on space, so I could only get video of the robot moving short distances, but I think you get the idea of how 'capable' this robot is. The whole point here is to get a feeling for how this robot can move, by running them motors at full speed. This will help us for when we are designing intelligent movements in future parts of this project.
