Infrared sensor and PCA9685

Hi, I am working on my own interactive piece that uses a PCA9685 driver and an infrared sensor. Here is the situation that I want: servos rotate around randomly and independently when there is no interaction & when there is an interaction which is when an infrared sensor senses the distance of the human hand, it can control servos turn into a certain angle.

I have 8 servos here connected by PCA9685 and they move randomly and independently. I want to add an Infrared sensor to control them all to turn into a certain angel. But right now I only figure out the step of their automatic motions.

Here is the code that I program. I also try to add an infrared section there, divide it's Val into two situations, but it is not working.

int pulseWidth(int angle) {
int pulse_wide, analog_value;
pulse_wide = map(angle, 0, 180, MIN_PULSE_WIDTH, MAX_PULSE_WIDTH);
analog_value = int(float(pulse_wide) / 1000000 * FREQUENCY * 4096);
return analog_value;
}

int stopMotor(int IRIn, int myservoOut) {
// Read values from IR

Tip 1: analogRead range is 0 ~ 1023. Check through the serial monitor, which value is being obtained, you will probably have to use a different value, 512 would be the center of 1024.

Tip 2: You can use a 'for' loop in conjunction with 'arrays' to do sequences instead of copying the same code multiple times.
