voltage regulators vs. speed controlers

i am working for a side project for my schools DARPA team and i am trying to figure out the differences between using a voltage regulator (variable resister) or going and getting speed controllers. i know that the voltage regulators will use more power and are probably not as accurate i am just looking to find out what the real differences are.
