👉 Drive math, also known as differential drive, is a method of controlling the movement of a robot or mobile device using two independent motors attached to wheels. Each motor is connected to a servo that controls the wheel's rotation, allowing precise control over the robot's direction and speed. By adjusting the speed of each motor independently, the robot can move forward, backward, turn left, or turn right. This approach simplifies the control system compared to more complex methods like wheel encoders or LIDAR, as it relies on proportional control of motor speeds to achieve desired movements. The mathematical relationship between motor speeds and wheel velocities is linear, making it straightforward to program and implement in robotics applications.
