Hello, I'm trying to use a capacitive sensor on arduino as an input to then have processing draw a chart with data or just write a text according to values gotten by the sensors. So far I've been able to read the values on the processing screen, but can't make processing write a text if the value goes over 300 for example...

The Arduino code is:

include <CapacitiveSensor.h>

CapacitiveSensor capSensor7 = CapacitiveSensor(13, 7); CapacitiveSensor capSensor8 = CapacitiveSensor(13, 8); CapacitiveSensor capSensor9 = CapacitiveSensor(13, 9);

void setup() { // open a serial connection Serial.begin(9600); }

void loop() { long sensorValue7 = capSensor7.capacitiveSensor(10); long sensorValue8 = capSensor8.capacitiveSensor(10); long sensorValue9 = capSensor9.capacitiveSensor(10);

delay (300); Serial.print("\t Lata3: "); Serial.print(sensorValue7);

Serial.print("\t Lata2: "); Serial.print(sensorValue8);

Serial.print("\t Lata1: "); Serial.println(sensorValue9);

}

And the processing code is: import processing.serial.*;

Serial myPort; // Create object from Serial class String val; // Data received from the serial port

void setup(){ String portName = Serial.list()[0]; //change the 0 to a 1 or 2 etc. to match your port myPort = new Serial(this, portName, 9600); }

void draw() {

frameRate (9); if ( myPort.available() > 0) {
val = myPort.readStringUntil('\n'); // read it and store it in val } println(val); //print it out in the console }

Help please!!
