Teams: How did you use your potentiometers this year?

Hi,
I was curious as to how teams that used potentiometers integrated them into their designs. Team 987 mounted our potentiometer on top of a pulley that controlled our shooter's turret. Using the values between 0 and 1024, we determined the position of our turret. Also, were there any teams that actually converted a potentiometer's value into a measure of degrees?
