/* This code controls the main functions of the servomotor. The servomotor needs an external power of 6 or 12 V and is connected to the PWMOut pin
External power can be either 4*1.5V AA batteries (6V), 8*1.5V AA batteries (12V) or an appropiate DC voltage source. It is important that ground of both the servo motor and mBed platform are the same. 
Servo motor speed can be controlled by an external signal such as a potnetiometer or in context of this project an EMG signal.

/* Example code to control the servomotor by a potentiometer, similarly one could control the speed of the servomotor. 
The speed can be controlled by using the library VarSpeedServo.h 
By mapping the intensity of EMG signal to a range of values (e.g. 0:1:100) you can easily control the speed and position of the motor
