PID Controllers are the next best thing!!

To help robotics to become less jerky and smooth just as if a human being was doing it,PID controllers must be used.How I found this out was I saw the HiTechic IRRC Car and how that they used a PID controller that they built in NXT-G and how when it moved it moved like a real car. So just to prove to myself that this would work I built the HiTechnic IRRC Car and switch the IR Receiver with the compass sensor to benefit D.R.i.V.e.And a few tweaks allowed me to make it work. I plan to change D.R.i.V.e.'s steering to something like the one on the HiTechnic IRRC Car which is using Ackerman steering. The links of how this was done,progress and documents will be posted in the next post.
