#include <ArJoyHandler.h>
The joystick handler keeps track of the minimum and maximums for both axes, updating them to constantly be better calibrated. The speeds set influence what is returned by getAdjusted...
The joystick is not opened until init is called. What should basically be done to use this class is to 'init' a joystick, do a 'setSpeed' so you can use 'getAdusted', then at some point do a 'getButton' to see if a button is pressed, and then do a 'getAdjusted' to get the values to act on.
Also note that x is usually rotational velocity (since it right/left), whereas Y is translational (since it is up/down).
You can also use this to do multiple uses with the joystick, for example to have button 1 drive the robot while to have button 2 move the camera, you can get the different values you want (don't want to move the camera as quickly or as far as the robot) by using setSpeed before doing getAdjusted since setSpeed is fast and won't take any time.
