Im trying to control up to 40 servos, independently, and using pressure sensitive inputs (PSI). That is the first step.
I am using a MegaADK, with flexiforce type sensors and some Hitec servos.
The servos should move in tic-toc fashion, say between 90 and 130 degrees for example. The PSI´s I would like to moderate how quickly the servos move to their new position. So the change in resistivity of the PSI should correspond to a change in velocity of the servo. If i push lightly, the servo moves more slowly. If i push hard, the servo moves more rapidly to its final destination.
The problem Im having is the speed regulation of servos.
I was able to find similar threads, but not yet resolved.

This program SoftwareServo.h apparently lets one modify the pulse packet sent to the Servo, to give speed regulation. However, I am using Arduino 1.0.5, and I cannot get the library to load via the #include command
I get this message, similar to the last post. However when I make the changes recommended in the post, I still cannot get the SoftwareServo to go. Also, Im not sure what an IDE is.
My goal is only to control servo speed moving in tic-toc fashion when some sensor is actuated. Either using SoftwareServo.h library or some other. Please, any recommendations would really help.
