Accomplished:

1. Functions to take the data of wheel speed encoders
2. Acceleration control implemented
3. Discovered WPIlib.h must be #included before Encoder.h  or else you get weird compiler errors.
   
4. Changed teleoperated code to use joysticks instead of Logitech Gamepad
5. Implemented turbo and slow driving modes
   

Integrated drivetrain control software with mechanical and electrical drivetrain - It Works!  It Works!  IT'S ALIVE!

Next Tasks to Do

1. Test Acceleration control with the real drivetrain and tweak settings.
2. Implement traction control
3. Get feedback from test drivers and tune driving speed and control curves to their preference.
4. Implement other driving controls: Override switch and LED, Wheel Slip LED, Driving Mode switches.
