move-steering

to make motors move at the same time

Installation

$ npm install move-steering

Usage

var MoveSteering = require('move-steering')

MoveSteering('b', 'c').degrees(360, 300, 0) // move straight for 1 motor rotation
MoveSteering().timed(2000, 300, 100) // turn right for 2 seconds

API

MoveSteering(leftPort, rightPort)

• leftPort - port letter of the left motor. defaults to 'b'.
• rightPort - port letter of the right motor. defaults to 'c'.

Returns: a move steering instance that controls two motors

.forever(speed, turn, opts)

Run both motors until they receive a stop command.

• speed - speed at which to run the motors
• turn - number between -100 and 100 to denote amount of turning. -100 is maximum left turn. 0 is straight. 100 is maximum right turn.
• opts - an object of optional parameters

.degrees(degrees, speed, turn)

Run both motors for a number of degrees with the ability to turn.

• degrees - number of degrees for the motor to spin
• speed - speed at which to run the motors
• turn - number between -100 and 100 to denote amount of turning. -100 is maximum left turn. 0 is straight. 100 is maximum right turn.

.rotations(rotations, speed, turn)

Run both motors with a number of degrees the ability to turn.

• rotations - number of rotations for the motor to spin
• speed - speed at which to run the motors
• turn - number between -100 and 100 to denote amount of turning. -100 is maximum left turn. 0 is straight. 100 is maximum right turn.

.timed(time, speed, turn)

Run both motor for a specified amount of time.

• time - time in milliseconds
• speed - speed at which to run the motors
• turn - number between -100 and 100 to denote amount of turning. -100 is maximum left turn. 0 is straight. 100 is maximum right turn.

.stop()

Stop both motors.

.reset()

Reset both motors.
