TouchSensor(port) |
Deals with Touch |
ColorSensor(port) |
Reads Color |
InfraredSensor(port) |
Gets the distance using infrared light |
UltrasonicSensor
(port) |
Gets the distance using sound waves |
GyroSensor(port, direction=Direction.CLOCKWISE) |

|
|
Motor Methods
angle() |
Get the rotation angle of the motor. |
reset_angle
(angle) |
Reset the angle of the motor |
speed() |
Get the speed (angular velocity) of the motor. |
stop
(stop_type=Stop.COAST) |
Stop the motor. Refer to Stop in parameters to see available stop types |
run(speed) |
Keep the motor running at a constant speed (angular velocity). |
run_time
(speed, time, stop_type=Stop.COAST, wait=True) |
Run the motor at a constant speed (angular velocity) for a given amount of time |
run_angle
(speed, rotation_angle, stop_type=Stop.COAST, wait=True) |
Run the motor at a constant speed (angular velocity) by a given angle. |
run_target
(speed, target_angle, stop_type=Stop.COAST, wait=True) |
Run the motor at a constant speed (angular velocity) towards a given target angle. |
track_target
(target_angle) |
Track a target angle that varies in time.
This method is useful in fast loops where the motor target changes continuously. |
stalled() |
Check whether the motor is currently stalled. |
run_until_stalled
(speed, stop_type=Stop.COAST, duty_limit=default) |
Run the motor at a constant speed (angular velocity) until it stalls. The motor is considered stalled when it cannot move even with the maximum torque. |
Motor Methods ...
set_dc_settings
(duty_limit, duty_offset) |
Configure the settings to adjust the behavior of the dc() command. This also affects all of the run commands, which use the dc() method in the background. |
set_run_settings
(max_speed, acceleration) |
Configure the maximum speed and acceleration/deceleration of the motor for all run commands. This applies to the run, run_time, run_angle, run_target, or run_until_stalled commands you give the motor. See also the default parameters for each motor. |
set_pid_settings
(kp, ki, kd, tight_loop_limit, angle_tolerance, speed_tolerance, stall_speed, stall_time) |
Configure the settings of the position and speed controllers. See also pid and the default parameters for each motor. |

color() |
Measures the color of surface |
ambient() |
Measures the ambient light intensity |
reflection() |
Measure the reflection of a surface using a red light. |
rgb() |
Measure the reflection of a surface using a red, green, and then a blue light. |
InfraredSensor
distance() |
Measure the relative distance between the sensor and an object using infrared light. |
beacon
(channel) |
Measure the relative distance and angle between the remote and the infrared sensor. |
buttons
(channel) |
Check which buttons on the infrared remote are pressed. |
Ultrasonic Sensor
distance
silent=False) |
Measure the distance between the sensor and an object using ultrasonic sound waves. |
presence() |
Check for the presence of other ultrasonic sensors by detecting ultrasonic sounds. |
Gyroscopic Sensor
speed() |
Get the speed (angular velocity) of the sensor. |
angle() |
Get the accumulated angle of the sensor. |
reset_angle
(angle) |
Set the rotation angle of the sensor to a desired value. |
