You probably know this, but there is a new wiki site trying to gather all information about sensors and sound control. There is already a fair amount of references, lists of devices, and general sensor tutorial stuff: http://www.sensorwiki.org/ I guess discussion about sensor technology could be there as well since many questions are of a more general nature. You may also check out the european action Congas (Gesture controlled audio systems) http://www.cost287.org/ /anders

Hey arduino folks,
I looked at the website, the HW looks very cute and promising, but I don't get the whole javaesque/proce55ing connection. Does the thing work on linux? I did not see any mention on the website... Why this java junk, did they write a interpreter in C that runs on the chip and executes that weirdo code? (which looks no easier than a good C API to me)
I think these chips have a full tool-chain for linux don't they?
At least processing finally has the source code available, they did not last time I checked.
oh well, I just think java is icky.

Do you have an patches that you are willing to share? I want to see how people are using various boards with Pd.
I will be working a lot with sensor boards in the coming months, including the Arduino, MultIO, and STEIM's junXionbox. Basically, I want to make an easy-to-use framework like the [hid] toolkit for sensor boxes. So basically, I'll be making high-level abstractions to interface these boxes which output data in a floating point range of 0-1. That means you can then use all of the mapping objects that I wrote for the [hid] toolkit. Actually, I think the grand plan will be to make a separate library of mapping objects, and then librariess for HIDs, sensor boxes, etc.

I've been using arduino with PD heavily since the beginning of December, I am happy with the ready sensor connections as well as self made sensors. And Arduino is an open source microcontroller hardware, http://www.arduino.cc/
cheers, Koray.

There are also the arduino and wiring boards that talk nicely with many progs.
