Re: Shaft encoders to go in a perfect line

[fryfrog]

Look, another one in a forum we can’t reply to

I am trying to use a shaft encoder on each side of my robot to run in a straight line. I know how to use a single shaft encoder at a time, but is there a way to run 2 sections of programming at the same time? This would make it so I could just test each side to make sure that it goes the exact amount of rotations, but I don’t know how to accomplish this. Thank you for the help!

Nothing you ever do on a computer (multi-core processors asides) happens at the same time. Everything happens one after the other, but really quick.

So just do your program this way and you’ll never notice a difference.
