This project showcases a dynamic motor control system utilizing the platform. The project integrates hardware, real-time processing, and dynamic scaling to achieve precision control. The goal is to create a motorized system where the speed decreases as the motor approaches an object and stops completely when it gets very close. This is achieved using distance measurements and velocity interpolation.

Project Key Components
The platform serves as the control hub, interfacing with the motor and reading sensor data.
A distance sensor is used to measure the object's position in real-time.
The motor is controlled using velocity commands, allowing for smooth acceleration and deceleration.
Distance-Based Motor Control The motor dynamically adjusts its speed based on proximity.
Smooth Interpolation The velocity decreases gradually instead of abrupt stops, ensuring smoother operation.
Real-Time Feedback The system logs current distance and velocity values for monitoring.
