Description
Requirements:
- This class will drive the motors by getting 'commands'.
- It will control its speed using a PID.
- Some functionalities:
- turn by x degrees using the encoders (one wheel or two wheels)
- ramp acceleration
- ramp deceleration

Steps:
- Check for existing projects
- Code
- Write unit tests
- Add documentation
- Hardware design
- Software design

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked TimedPID.cpp project and the repository's existing motor, encoder, and command-handling code. Define the motor driver's scope around PID speed control, turning by encoder-based degrees, acceleration and deceleration ramps, then add unit tests and the requested hardware and software documentation.
