50_robot_sharoIR software questions
« on: February 27, 2013, 08:40:44 AM »
How does this  "if(scan_angle > 57) robot_turn_left();"  make sense? when scan_angle`s max value is 57.

   if (sharp_IR_reading > scan_thresh)//object detected
      {
      if (scan_angle>41) //overflow protection
         scan_angle-=2;//scan right
      }
Here why do we need to make that overflow protection? I mean couldn`t we just say
   if (sharp_IR_reading > scan_thresh)//object detected
      {
      scan_angle=scan_angle
      }

When the angle is at 57, the robot will turn left. :P
(not sure what your question is exactly)
