set_velocity()

Article summary

Did you find this summary helpful?

Thank you for your feedback

Set the linear and rotational velocities of the robot.
With this function, you can move the robot to any direction simultanously.

Reference

Arguments	Type	Default value
x_velocity	float		Forward (positive) or backward (negative) velocity, in meters per second [m/s].
y_velocity	float		Lateral left (positive) or right (negative) velocity, in meters per second [m/s].
angular_velocity	float		Rotational velocity. Positive: left. Negative: right.
duration	float		Time (in seconds) to move at the selected velocity. The value must be positive
callback	func	None	If you define a callback, it will be called when the movement finishes.
wait	bool	false	Wait until the movement finishes before moving to next line of code.
ang_unit	ANG_UNIT	ANG_UNIT.DEG	The angle's unit for rotation (angular_velocity). ANG_UNIT.DEG for degrees, ANG_UNIT.RAD for radians.

None

Exception	Condition
`RayaWrongArgument`	Duration is negative or equal to zero
`RayaAlreadyMoving`	There is another motion command in progress
`RayaBridgeException`	Command was rejected by bridge

Rotate to the right for 1 second:

await motion.set_velocity(x_velocity=0.0, y_velocity=0.0, angular_velocity=-0.5, duration=1.0, wait=True)
