how to send data automatically via osc?

joeparsons

Hi, I'm a new processing user. I have create this sketch merging two sketches. one was taken from the site of the pulse sensor amped, and the other from an example of osc communication with vvvv. it works, sending the BPM value I need on vvvv. the problem is that I must press the mouse button every time I want to send data. it is possible change the function "mousePressed" with another that sends data automatically every 3 seconds?

thanks a lot!!!

Hi,

Please format your code so nobody gets a headache looking at it:

• in the Processing IDE, hit ctrl+t before copying to the forum
• in the forum, highlight the code and hit ctrl+k (or click the C button).

Usually this kind of thing is done like this:

int intervalTime = 3000;
int prevTime = 0;

void draw()
{
  if(millis() > prevTime + intervalTime)
  {
    //send the OSC message
    prevTime = millis();
  }
}
