Proportional coding
Introduction
Very often proportionality is used in robotics programming. Proportionality is an important topic on mathematics curriculum. The proportionality means a straight line (with slope, or gradient, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle m} ) passing through the origin. In robotics, the slope is first translated to pass the origin.
Aim
Slope, straight line. Multiplication.
Robot
Almost any robot will do, we use here Asimov 2/ Verne robot.
Sensors
No sensors are used.

Theory
-
The red and green lines do not pass origin, but show proportional relation.
-
The linefollowing robot uses proportionality
-
The proportionality is very important while driving to a given angle with the gyroscope.
