Re: Best Driving scheme?
In the past we have used an exponential curve that is put into a lookup table. We started with an excel spreadsheet and experimentally created an exponential curve that we felt provided good slow speed precision, but still went full speed when the joystick was pushed all the way. Graphing the curve helped to visualize this. From excel we created a lookup table that created a pwm value for each joystick value from 0-254.
