Serial Output Lab

This lab was similar to my Stupid Pet Trick. We transferred data from our arduino board to our computers using serial communication. Instead of using a photocell I used a potentiometer. The potentiometer was more difficult to use because of its' small size. I had to squeeze my fingers on the bread board in order to turn the potentiometer. If I ever have a project involving a potentiometer I will remember to invest in a bigger size.


My Stupid Pet Trick used analogue data to control a paddle on processing. This lab sends byte data from your arduino board to your computer and then processing graphs it. The graph responded quickly and accurately. Every time I moved my potentiometer the graph moved without any delay.
