Adjusting Joystick Sensivity in Java

[Kevin Pai]

Its ya boy Kevin Pai coming at you, I was wondering how to adjust the sensitivity of the joystick to slow down its acceleration.

how to adjust the sensitivity of the joystick to slow down its acceleration.

It's unclear what you want.

Do you want the motor voltage to ramp up at a limited rate when you make large changes in command?

Or do you simply want to limit the maximum command that the joysticks can issue?

[Kevin Pai]

Yeah sorry for being unclear, I want to to be able to moderate the speed of a motor by changing voltage based on joystick movement. We have to be able to move the robot with slower acceleration because our joystick is too sensitive.
