It would be amazing ig your could provide some sample code for the long and Int transfer. I am currently having some issues.
Here is some of my code if you wouldn't mind going through it. The issue I am getting is that it hangs at the first loop (seeing if the arduino is ready after it resets from opening a serial port) The arduino does reset but nothing on either side does anything after that. I know this because of a couple print statements (not connected to the serial besides the loop they are in) i didn't include never show up
Python
class Target:
def run():
(code not important (from openCV library)
ser = serial.Serial("/dev/ttyACM0", 57600)
connected = 0
while connected == 0: //From consoul messages I am guessing this is where it is getting hung
ser.write("3") // I am little confused because the pySerial will only send strings but the arduino will not read strings?
if ser.read() == 4: //Might be the reason why the "connected" variable will never switch and end the loop
connected = 1
time.sleep(1)
while connected == 1:
(a lot of code related to openCV and not arduino serial)
ser.write("1") # cheacking to see if the arduino is ready for now command
read = ser.read()
if read == 2: #the value two is the arduino saying it is ready for a new command
ser.write(str(center_point[1])) # Part of openCV code that needs to be sent to arduino
time.sleep(.1) #giving arduino time to move value out of serial cache and into array(just thought of that now not really sure how to implement that into arduino code)
ser.write(center_point[2]))
Arduino
int readSerial = 0;
void setup() {
pinMode(5, OUTPUT);
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
readSerial = Serial.parseInt();
if (readSerial == 3) {
Serial.write(4);
readSerial = Serial.parseInt();
if (readSerial == 2) {
Serial.write(3);
readSerial = Serial.parseInt();
Serial.print(readSerial);
}
}
