Implement Field-Centric Driving

You’ll need the Field-Centric Driving worksheet for this section!

The top row of the chart is the direction we want the robot to move on the field. (Up is away from us.) The column on the left is the direction the robot is facing, the arrow pointing to the front of the robot. Begin by filling in the chart with arrows the robot needs to move (robot centric). The first cell is filled in for us. When you are finished, show your worksheet to a mentor who will verify all the arrows are correct.

Next, write the angle the arrow represents next to the arrow. Up is 0deg, right is 90deg, left is -90deg, down is 180deg (and/or -180deg), up & right is 45deg, and up & left is -45deg.
