 Things to be covered in wednesday's class
some things I want covered in wednesday's class is: Light Sensors and Line Tracking. Does anyone want to add to that list?

 Re: Things to be covered in wednesday's class
We can do that. Is there a particular RVW you want to see the line following in? For example, Palm Island or Operation Reset?

 Re: Things to be covered in wednesday's class
Not really, line following is line following  . It would be nice if it was shown on Palm Island because that is what i am working on.

Ok, Line following is on the agenda.

 Re: Things to be covered in wednesday's class
What would you like to know about PID? Would you like to see how it is applied to line following?

 Re: Things to be covered in wednesday's class
Yes, that would be very nice. Even better, how to use multiple light sensors to speed up line following.

 Re: Things to be covered in wednesday's class
I taught a lesson this year on using multiple light sensors for PID line following. I'll see if I can find those power point slides. Also, there is a wealth of info here on the forum that you can look at also. That's how I researched the topic.

 Re: Things to be covered in wednesday's class
Ive heard that line following is less efficient with two sensors but more precise. Honestly i thing using one sensor is fine, no need for two.

That was discussed at some length here: http://www.robotc.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=17250In that thread, Xander links to a great article.
