+ * Hall sensor velocity motion control example, modified to demonstrate usage of SmoothingSensor. 
+ * The only changes are the declaration of the SmoothingSensor, passing it to motor.linkSensor 
+ * instead of the HallSensor instance, and the added Commander code to switch between the two.
+ *
  * Steps:
  * 1) Configure the motor and sensor
  * 2) Run the code
