Re: Gyro sensor for VEX

Here are some resources for you:

vexforum.com (official vex forum... talks about every vex related stuff)

http://www.inpharmix.com/jps/PID_Con...ms_Robots.html

This is a very through article explaining beginning (1 light sensor) PID control for line following.

After you got that down, implement more light sensors to make it faster / accurate.

As for the gyro sensor, I'm pretty sure it should be put in an analog port, but I am not quiet sure how it can help with line following. I only use line sensors and they do a very good job following the line with PID.

Hope this helps.
