Serial Terminal Loopbacks in Linux

Thanks Adam for the scripts !

In order to test serial communication Linux has a great feature where you can create virtual serial ports and connect them to each other.  A serial loopback ! :)

Adding new controllers?

So I am wondering if I have to use java to add a new motor controller?

I am using a dagu 4 motor controller that uses two inputs for each motor, pwm and direction, and it also offers encoders and current sensing for each motor

Just curious as to how to add a new controller.

Face Tracking

 

 

Here is my face tracking so far. Uses the OpenCV and Serial services. The code used in this video is HERE.

Adding new arduino boards?

I was wondering how hard it is to add new arduino boards to the mrl arduino service.

I am using an UNO right now, but only because I can't use the Modern Device RbbLeo, which is an arduino compatible Leonardo board.

Is this something that's hard to do?

Wireless piano using a Ultrasonic Ping Sensor and JFugue Service :D

Hi :D this is my latest project...a wirless piano using an Ultrasonic ping sensor hooked to an Arduino...

Ultrasonic Ping Sensor->Arduino->Serial->MRL->JFugue-> Musical Note

Sensor measure how far is my hand and send distance in cm over serial connection using Arduino...

MRL receive the distance using serial service and if the hand is at less than 20 cm from the sensor, play a 'A' musical note using JFugue service
