With your sensor, build a simple computer/microprocessor project. Establish communication between the computer and processor, either controlling the device with commands from your computer program, or driving the computer program with information from the processor. You may use Processing, and adapt one of the simple examples we have seen in class, or you can use any other program you are comfortable with (Flash, MaxMSP, PD), so long as you can demonstrate it to us in class next week. We will take the first part of class to look at your these mini-projects. <!-- Also, please register on the wiki and post a short description of your project. -->
The little program from the first part of the lesson, where your Arduino program outputs the data from your sensor Serially will be useful here. Now you just need to make a program on the computer to take that data and do something with it. If you are looking for inspiration, pick a couple of the sketchbook examples in Processing and run a few of them. You will need to intergrate the Serial data input into one of those examples, or come up with something new. We can work on this in class today.
