A cool first application was to try to be able to control the robot with something in real life. My setup kit came with a potentiometer, which is basically a knob which controls the resistance and then depending on that resistance feeds a number back into your board. You can then use that number to control the angle of the claw. So for instance, this potentiometer gives a reading back which is a number from 0 to 1023, and I wanted to transform it to an angle from 25 (fully opened claw) to 150 (fully closed claw), so you can do some math to transform those two ranges. Cool stuff!
