USB servo board playback

A quick demonstration showing the usb servo controller board playing back a simple pre-programmed sequence. A description of the animation can be found at http://nerdclub-uk.blogspot.com/2011/05/usb-servo-board-animation-playback-edit.html

The USB connection is used purely to provide a 5V power supply, all controlling is done on the servo board, reading data from the onboard eeprom chip. Final version includes a 5V regulator, allowing a battery supply to be used and no PC connection required.

Playback is initiated by pressing a button.
Playback call also be started by sending data from a PC via USB, or from another device, by serial communications.
