Additional Notes

• The provided code is a template and does not include specific functionality. It needs to be populated with instructions to read the analog voltage from the potentiometer and perform desired actions based on the input.
• The setup() function is intended for initialization code that runs once, such as setting pin modes.
• The loop() function contains code that runs repeatedly, which is where the main logic of the program will reside.

This documentation provides an overview of the circuit's components, their wiring, and the initial code structure for the Arduino UNO. Further development of the code is required to achieve the desired functionality of the circuit.
