Regarding the Project: Grandpa Spoon

The code used in the project:
This Repo
This code is coincidently the exact copy of the code provided in this blog at the end:
The Original Repo mentioned in this blog

Its clearly visible that @nishant-giri did not even go through the code.
Let me walk you through all the instances which led me to this conclusion.

1. The first code line.
   #include<SPI.h>
   This is used to include the library which handles SPI communication.
   But there is no command in the entire code which is using SPI communication protocol.

2. All the variable and function names are the same. Ohh lol, the entire idea is the same :)

3. The biggest mistake.
   int ServoRoll = map(Roll, -75, 75, 0, 180);
   The logic behind this command is to map the values coming from the sensor which is of the range (-90 to 90) after processing through the function named FunctionsPitchRoll and map it to (0 to 180) so that the servo rotates the head of the spoon in the opposite direction relative to the patient's hands.
   Again all of this is completely dependent on the relative orientation of the sensor and the servo.
   @nishant-giri simply copied the range of (-75 to 75).

Let me tell you the actual reason behind the chosen value of 75.
The reason was that the servo was stopped rotating after 75 degrees because the spoon was not attached according to the centre of the servo. Instead it was placed in such a way that it is in alignment with the rest of the spoon body and hence there was some error.
To account for this error, The 75 value was chosen.

I am aware that the original code is available in public domain, but to maintain some dignity the original repo could have been directly included instead of making another repo.

I am in full-support of open-source contributions and I was really happy to see this initiative by ISTE-VIT and wanted to participate in this.

From now on, I request ISTE-VIT to check for plagiarism as it may lead to such misunderstandings though not intentional.

I would like to create a fencing detection system that supports Eppe and Foil/Sabre modes.
Can you asssign me and @luis-1063 to this issue?
