Hacked into Speed Controller for Utility Cart

 Over the last week, my workplace had 'Hackweek' where teams of the office banded together to work on whatever wild ideas they had in mind. I found out how the speed controller transmitted speed settings to the transmission, through an analog voltage off from a potentiometer. Then, we simulated this speed signal through a PWM signal from a Raspberry Pi.

It was a fun week and I look forward to participating in the HackMIT 2019 hackathon.
