Controlling Resolume With Processing

CathyODonovan

I am creating and interactive installation for my final year project. I am using conductive paint which uses the capacitive sensor in arduino so when its touched i get a reading of over 50 in the serial port. I then have arduino communicating with processing so when i touch the paint the numbers of over 50 appear in the console. What i want to do is have different conductive paint buttons trigger different videos to play in resolume and the video would be projected onto walls. I have both the syphon and oscP5 sketch downloaded in processing but i am unsure which to use and how to go about using it.

Just wondering if anyone could help me or give me some guidance, i am new to this so a basic explaination would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

below is my code for arduino

#include <Boards.h>
#include <Firmata.h>


#include <CapacitiveSensor.h>

CapacitiveSensor cs_2_4 = CapacitiveSensor(2,4);
void setup()
{

Serial.begin(9600); }

void loop()
{ long start = millis(); 
long total5 = cs_2_4.capacitiveSensor(30);


Serial.print(millis() - start);        // check on performance in milliseconds
Serial.print("\t");                    // tab character for debug windown spacing

Serial.println(total5);                  // print sensor output 1

            // print sensor output 3

delay(100);                             // arbitrary delay to limit data to serial port

}

below is my code for processing

import processing.serial.*;

Serial myPort; // Create object from Serial class

String val; // Data received from the serial port

void setup() { size(400,400); myPort = new Serial(this, "/dev/tty.usbmodem1421", 9600); }

void draw()

{ if ( myPort.available() > 0)

{ // If data is available,
val = myPort.readStringUntil('\n'); // read it and store it in val
}

println(val); //print it out in the console

}
