+// Potentiometer plunger sensor
+//
+// This file implements our generic plunger sensor interface for a
+// potentiometer.
+
+#include "FastAnalogIn.h"
+
+// The potentiometer doesn't have pixels, but we still need an
+// integer range for normalizing our digitized voltage level values.
+// The number here is fairly arbitrary; the higher it is, the finer
+// the digitized steps.  A 40" 1080p HDTV has about 55 pixels per inch
+// on its physical display, so if the on-screen plunger is displayed
+// at roughly the true physical size, it's about 3" on screen or about
+// 165 pixels.  So the minimum quantization size here should be about
+// the same.  For the pot sensor, this is just a scaling factor, 
+// so higher values don't cost us anything (unlike the CCD, where the
+// read time is proportional to the number of pixels we sample).
