The easy introduction to Arduino & Co. 14: Servos
A servo is a very commonly used actuator. It's a small motor that can move to a specific angle. Although it's controlled via PWM, there are a few things to keep in mind. That's why we're using one of the libraries provided by the Arduino development environment.
In this exercise, we'll build a voltmeter with a pointer. As you can easily guess, this pointer will be moved to the correct position using an Arduino and a servo.
