//! # Example: Speed (Single Output Remote Controller)
//!
//! Shows how to use the `SpeedRemoteController` (Single Output protocol).
//! We gradually ramp up the speed of a single motor (on Channel One, RED output),
//! then stop it.
//!
//! **Hardware setup instructions**:
//! See the project README.md at: [https://github.com/azachar/brickbeam#enabling-ir-on-the-raspberry-pi](https://github.com/azachar/brickbeam#enabling-ir-on-the-raspberry-pi)
//!
//! **Usage**:
//! ```bash
//! cargo run --example speed --features cir
//! ```
