coding your neube

here's where you can learn how to code your very own mobile sensory unit using arduino, firmata, and processing. all free.. open api programs :)

basically.. this code takes in multiple streams of sensory data from the robot and reinterprets the variables on the arduino board. firmata acts as a nice bridge between arduino and processing and allows you to stream analog/digital inputs and outputs across multiple pins simultaneously. in processing, i designed a simple interface that allows for 3D visualization (P3D and peasycam) of the information coming in from the robot and created a way to incorporate keyboard navigation feedback to the sensory unit for servo motor control.

i'm currently working on creating an array and coding all the pings as separate objects so the ultrasonic would work kind of like a 3d scanner. if you have any questions and comments feel free to ask. i'm always looking for new ideas!
