Hi GroG |
GroG:
Ok Matthew, nice talking to you. see you around |
Matthew:
Well I'm going to head out. I may be back later if I get time tonight to work on stuff. |
Matthew:

Alright, there has been much progress done with the service.
The left and right sides get correctly initiated and set to an initial position that avoid big arms movements.
Setting the speeds also works, which is a big step for to optimize movements and gestures.

From a "clean" start - The following should get you started on the "left" side
Clean start - start MRL & reset Arduino (if possible)
