Lesson 12 – Controlling Servo Motor

Servo motors are frequently used in robotics and automated gimbals AND other remote-controlled systems where accurate and repeatable movement is required.

Program Description

This Arduino program controls a servo motor by first moving it through a fixed sequence of preset angles (0° → 90° → 0° with intermediate steps), then sweeping smoothly from 0° to 180° and back to 0° using incremental loops, with delays to control the speed.
