Re: Potentiometer arm control

You understand how to make a joint seek to a certain position, yes? The next step would be to find a list of pairs of joint values between (350,900) and (600,350), maybe 20 or 30 clicks apart, all of which keep the ball level. Then instead of going directly to the target, you instead target each intermediate point until you reach your goal. I'm having a little bit of trouble putting this into words... does it make sense?
