Send image to the Serial port? (Read 1537 times)

Send image to the Serial port?
Nov 5th, 2009, 10:16am  
Hello all,

This is my first post,  and I have a question.  I know it's possible to load an image file using the "image" command,  but I need to send that image file to the serial port,  based on certain actions in the Processing script.  Example:  If "A" happens,  then load image "A" and send it out the serial port to a USB device, and so on.

Is this is possible,  and if so,  what command would I use to do this?  I have searched the reference,  but am not having much luck.

I'm still very new to the Processing environment,  so please excuse me if this is a stupid question.

Thank you very much to anyone who can help...

Jim

Cedric,  thanks for the reply.

What I would like to do is based on a certain event,  I want Processing to load a specific image file(.jpg file from the data directory) and then send that image file out to a USB digital photo frame.  I would have 4 action events, which would correspond to 4 separate jpg files,  and would display those images as certain events occur.

It's basically an automatic detector of certain atmospheric events..
