Controlling a Servo with IR

Setting up the Example

In this example we will control the servo using an IR remote. We can adjust the speed that the servo

moves and we can select individual preset angles for positioning the servo.

Here is an illustration showing how to wire up the devices. As usual we have an IR receiver

connected to +5v, ground, and pin 11. We also have a servo with three wires. The red wire is +5v.

The black or dark brown wire is ground and the remaining wire usually yellow is the signal wire

which we have connected to pin 9 although it could be any digital output pin.
