i think you should be able to control a shift register from pd within the existing architecture.
if you can access those 3 pins from pd just send them the HIGHs and LOWs you would send in arduino code…
Theoretically yes, but it's probably slow and unreliable. If you could just send the desired bit states from Pd and let the Arduino deal with timing and ordering, data transmission would have less overhead would likely be more reliable.
One could still write a little code snippet for the Arduino and an complementary abstraction based on comport to do something like this. Right now, I would not know how to make that part of Firmata and pduino.
