Controlling the tracked vehicle using Raspberry Pi in Python
The first step to access the functionality is to install the library associated with the control board, which can be found at http://www.monkmakes.com/?page_id=698. You'll create a Python code that will allow you to access the two motors, similar to what you did in the first chapter. The first part of the code, which should look almost the same as the code that you created in the first chapter, will look as follows:
Now, the second part of the code that will drive the two different motors based on whether you want to go forward, backward, or turn right or left is as follows:
As previously discussed, the rr.set_motors()
function allows you to specify the speed and direction of each motor independently. Now that you have the basic code to drive your tracked vehicle, you'll need to modify this code so that you can call these functions from another Python program. You'll also need to add some calibrated movement so that...
