Location

Introduction

The VEX VR Location Sensor can track the robot’s location and angle within the different playgrounds.

Below is a list of all available methods:

• position – Returns the robot’s X or Y coordinate.

• position_angle – Returns the robot’s angle.

position

position returns the X or Y coordinate position of the VR Robot.

Usage:
location.position(axis, units)

Parameters	Description
axis	The axis to return the position of: X Y
units	The unit to represent the position: INCHES MM – millimeters

def main():
    # Display the Y position after driving
    drivetrain.drive_for(FORWARD, 100, MM)
    brain.print(location.position(Y, MM))

# VR threads — Do not delete
vr_thread(main)

position_angle

position_angle returns the angle of the robot in degrees.

Usage:
location.position_angle(units)

Parameters	Description
units	The unit to represent the angle: DEGREES

def main():
    # Display the angle after turning
    drivetrain.turn_for(RIGHT, 135, DEGREES)
    brain.print(location.position_angle(DEGREES))

# VR threads — Do not delete
vr_thread(main)
