In this chapter, you will learn how to control motors and servos. Using DC motors will help with projects where you need to control the wheels on a vehicle. The servos can help in your projects that need to control robotic arms to move around. Both of these devices will give us a way to create mechanical motion. Depending on what motion you are trying to create in your project, you may want to choose one over the other. How each of them functions, and where they are best suited, will be covered in the following sections.
By the end of this chapter, you will be able to use what you have learned to create projects that move around in all sorts of interesting ways. This opens up a whole new set of possibilities in terms of the types of projects that you will be able to build.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Tuning a servo to the correct...
