Timing a Speedbot
Sam Sangankar, James F. Cox · TeachEngineering Digital Library Submission Portal · 2014
Students work in groups using a timer or stopwatch to measure the speed of an NXT robot. The robot can be started and stopped by using a touch sensor and it is programmed to display the distance it has traveled in centimeters after it stops. Using the gathered data, students complete a worksheet to determine the mean speed of an NXT robot at a given motor power.
