Hi,

I'm new to Processing and trying to send accelerometer data to Max with OSC.
Is there any suggestions?

My code:


// Draw a cylinder centered on the y-axis, going down from y=0 to y=height.
// The radius at the top can be different from the radius at the bottom,
// and the number of sides drawn is variable.

import oscP5.*;
import netP5.*;
import processing.serial.*;
import fullscreen.*;  // for updates: http://www.superduper.org/processing/fullscreen_api/
import processing.opengl.*; //OPENGL is in an experimental mode when entering fullscreen
import quicktime.std.movies.MovieDrawingComplete; // this enable fullscreen and exit fullscreen
import quicktime.std.movies.MovieController;

// This enable fullscreen
//Keyboard shortcuts: To enter/leave fullscreen mode:  ⌘+F
OscP5 oscP5;
NetAddress myRemoteLocation;
Serial myPort;
char inByte;
int xVal, yVal, zVal = 0;
int[] serialInArray = new int[3];
int serialCount = 0;
boolean firstContact = true;
String theValues = null; //string holds
FullScreen fs;

void setup(){


// set size to 1440X900

size(1440, 900, OPENGL);


// 5 fps

frameRate(24);
       oscP5 = new OscP5(this,12000);
       myRemoteLocation = new NetAddress("127.0.0.1",12000);

// Create the fullscreen object

fs = new FullScreen(this);


// enter fullscreen mode

fs.enter();



//This will hide the mouse cursor

try {


Robot robot = new Robot();


robot.mouseMove(int(width),int(height));

}

catch (AWTException e) {

}

//setup serial port

myPort = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[0], 9600); //what is wrong?

myPort.clear();
       
       
}

void draw() {

background(127, 202, 235);

fill(155,1 ,1);

lights();
       

translate(width/2, height/2);

rotateY(map(xVal*20, 0, width, 0, PI));

rotateZ(map(yVal*20, 0, height, 0, -PI));
       //rect(xVal*6, yVal*4, 250, 250);

noStroke();

translate(0, -40, 0);
       

drawCylinder(xVal, 2*zVal, yVal, 64);  // Draw a cylinder and defrom the object!
       
}

void drawCylinder(float topRadius, float bottomRadius, float tall, int sides) { // here the object is born!

float angle = 0;

float angleIncrement = TWO_PI / sides;

beginShape(QUAD_STRIP);

for (int i = 0; i < sides + 1; ++i) {


vertex(topRadius*cos(angle), 0, topRadius*sin(angle));


vertex(bottomRadius*cos(angle), tall, bottomRadius*sin(angle));


angle += angleIncrement;

}

endShape();

// If it is not a cone, draw the circular top cap

if (topRadius != 0) {


angle = 0;


beginShape(TRIANGLE_FAN);


// Center point


vertex(0, 0, 0);


for (int i = 0; i < sides + 1; i++) {



vertex(topRadius * cos(angle), 0, topRadius * sin(angle));



angle += angleIncrement;


}  


endShape();

}

// If it is not a cone, draw the circular bottom cap

if (bottomRadius != 0) {


angle = 0;


beginShape(TRIANGLE_FAN);


// Center point


vertex(0, tall, 0);


for (int i = 0; i < sides+1; i++) {



vertex(bottomRadius * cos(angle), tall, bottomRadius * sin(angle));



angle += angleIncrement;


}  


endShape();

}
}

void serialEvent(Serial port) {

// read a byte from the serial port:

int inByte = port.read();

// if this is the first byte received,

// take note of that fact. Otherwise, add it to the array:

if (firstContact == false) {


if (inByte == 'A') {



port.clear();          // clear the serial port buffer



firstContact = true;



port.write('A');


}

}

else {


// Add the latest byte from the serial port to array:


serialInArray[serialCount] = inByte;


serialCount++;



// If we have 3 bytes:


if (serialCount > 2 ) {



xVal = serialInArray[0];



yVal = serialInArray[1];



zVal = serialInArray[2];




// print the values (for debugging purposes only):



println(xVal + "\t" + yVal + "\t" + zVal);




// Send a capital A to request new sensor readings:



port.write('A');



// Reset serialCount:



serialCount = 0;


}

}

}


void simpleOscMessage1() {
 /* in the following different ways of creating osc messages are shown by example */
 OscMessage myMessage = new OscMessage("/xVal");
 
 myMessage.add(123); /* add an int to the osc message */

 /* send the message */
 oscP5.send(myMessage, myRemoteLocation);
}

Hi,

Thanks!

Best,
