Arduino Code for 360-Degree Servo Control

# Arduino Code for 360-Degree Servo Control

## Introduction
This code demonstrates how to control a continuous rotation servo motor using Arduino.
Unlike standard servos, continuous rotation servos can rotate continuously in both
directions, and their speed and direction are controlled by modifying the pulse width of the
control signal.

## Components Required
1. Arduino board (e.g., Uno, Nano, Mega)
2. Continuous rotation servo motor
3. Connecting wires
4. External power supply (if needed for the servo motor)

## Code Explanation
- The `Servo` library is used to control the servo motor.
- The `myServo.write()` function sets the speed and direction of the servo:
- `0` for full speed in one direction.
- `180` for full speed in the opposite direction.
- `90` to stop the servo.
- Delays are added to allow the servo to rotate for a specific amount of time before changing
its state.

## Arduino Code
```cpp
#include <Servo.h>

Servo myServo;

void setup() {
myServo.attach(9); // Attach the servo to pin 9
}

void loop() {
myServo.write(0); // Rotate servo in one direction
delay(1000); // Rotate for 1 second
myServo.write(90); // Stop the servo
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
myServo.write(180); // Rotate servo in the opposite direction
delay(1000); // Rotate for 1 second
myServo.write(90); // Stop the servo
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
}
```

## Usage
This code can be used in various robotics and automation projects where continuous
rotation is needed, such as:
- Driving wheels in robots.
- Conveyor belt systems.
- Rotational mechanisms.

## Notes
- Ensure that the servo motor has sufficient power.
- Avoid overloading the servo, as it may cause overheating or damage.
