Dear PD list. I would like to be able to
control the AD5206 chip (a 6 channel digital potentiometer) from within
the Pduino object written by Hans-Christoph Steiner. The
idea comes from one of the tutorial exercises in the C++ arduino
program.
Is this relatively
simple to do, or simply impossible? The aim in the long run is to be able
to be able to calibrate 6 force sensors remotely using the digital
potentiometers for an art installation project.
I have got
the above mentioned tutorial project
up and running succesfully using the arduino program, and I am also able to
get Pduino communicating with the arduino quite happily on my Windows Vista system, but I would imagine
to have control over the the digital
potentiometer device from within PD would require a revision to
the Firmata firmware would it not? I
would be most grateful for a clue.
thank you for your
attention, sincerely, Nick Burge.
