Map real time accelerometer values to 3D objects

bottleneck

Hi, I am trying to implement a situation where a 3D object in the IDE orients itself according to the values it gets from an accelerometer outside the IDE. The values are read using serial port. How do I use the rotate function to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

the core idea is to use map() to match the range of the incoming data to the range of the angle you need as shown here for mouseX:

void setup() { 
  size(640, 360, P3D);
} 

void draw() 
{     
  background(0, 0, 26);
  lights();

  translate(width/2, height/2);

  pushMatrix();
  fill(112);
  rotateY(map(mouseX, 0, width, 0, TWO_PI));
  box(200);
  popMatrix();
}
