The lab will involve working with this robot: ELEGOO Tumbller Self-Balancing Robot Car Kit Compatible with Arduino IDE,
which is a Two Wheeled Inverted Pendulum (TWIP), like a Segway.
The robot as is from Elegoo only uses the A signals from the wheel encoders. In order to get the B signals which doubles your position (and velocity) resolution and allows the robot to know which direction each wheel is turning, we modified the motherboard and changed the Arduino computer from a Nano to a Nano Every. See Info on robot hardware for more information.
