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 blocks:

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

• position angle – Returns the robot’s angle.

position

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

  (position [X v] in [mm v])

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

  when started :: hat events
  [Display the Y position after driving.]
  drive [forward v]
  wait (2) seconds
  stop driving
  print (position [Y v] in [mm v]) ▶

position angle

The position angle block returns the angle of the robot in degrees.

  (position angle in degrees)

Parameters	Description
	This block has no parameters.

  when started :: hat events
  [Display the angle after turning.]
  turn [right v]
  wait (2) seconds
  stop driving
  print (position angle in degrees) ▶
