Hello!!
My project is controlling six servo motors. They need to move in sequence. It is a robotic arm that my team and myself designed. It has one servo at the gripper, one at the arm, two at the shoulder, one at the elbow and at the base. This arm sorts objects based on their colors, and read and ADC port. That is not really a problem, its really the movement of the arm that I just can't get. I implemented your code partially (I will reference it:)), and I understand it fully it seems very logical to me. I just realized too late that my timers are not big enough, if I try using a 256 prescaler on timer of 8 bits, my servos don't move at all. I don't know what to do now, cause I am using timer1 for the 20 ms interrupt and the small 8 bit timer for the servos delays :( . Do you have any suggestions? I totally ran out of ideas, I will probably fail on my project :( .....
Thank you!!!!
