If you use a trapezoidal velocity profile, you will get an S-curve for x(t).

I think I should probably understand the trapezoidal method before I start jumping into some more complicated.
Sinusoidal is actually less complicated in many ways. No need to break the functions into regions.

FWIW, I just updated the paper to revA to include a plot of accel vs velocity so you can check to make sure the profile does not run afoul of motor saturation.
