- Software
- Robot arms and industry
- Library
ServoEasing is an Arduino library that interpolates servo movements between positions so they move smoothly instead of jumping.

What it does
- Provides linear and nine other easing curves for servo motion.
- Servos can move synchronized or independently, with non-blocking start functions based on a timer.
- Supports a callback when a servo arrives, plus stop, resume, detach and reattach.
- Offers trim, reverse, min/max constraints and custom degree-to-microsecond mapping.
- Can drive servos directly through the Arduino Servo library or through a PCA9685 16-channel expander.
- Includes a LightweightServo option for one or two servos on Uno and Nano boards.

Getting started
- Difficulty
- Beginner
- Hardware it needs, as the project states it
- Arduino boards such as Uno and Nano with the standard Arduino Servo library; the PCA9685 expander needs the Arduino Wire library; ESP32 needs the ESP32Servo library; the LightweightServo option is for Uno and Nano.
