When programming movement of a robot it's possible to set each motor's velocity to Skid-steer the robot. When you add the availability of steering servos, things get more complicated. And this points out a better way of approaching the design of a robot's navigation, using two variables: ''velocity'' and ''theta'' (turning angle).
When programming movement of a robot it's possible to set each motor's velocity to Skid-steer the robot. So you might set the port (left) side velocity at 80% and the starboard (right) side velocity at 20%, causing the robot to turn to starboard.
