Hi I am bringing an Arduino sensor reading into Unity.
I can pass the data from Arduino into Unity without any problem.
The sensor readings are coming from a flex sensor linked to a bicep muscle.
I want to use these sensor readings to generate a HUD Powerbar within a FPS game inside the Unity game engine.(the more the player flexes their bicep the more the energy bar will increase//if the player doesn't flex their muscle the energy bar will decrease).
I've already managed to take the sensor reading and apply it to the rotation of a 3d bottle - it works but it animates very 'jumpy' as the readings don't increase/decrease gradually. What I would like to do is increase & decrease the sensor data readings gradually. ie. if the flex sensor reading jumps from 0 to 80 I would like the energy bar to increase in height gradually in increments of 1 from 0-80 rather than suddenly becoming 80.
I have remapped the incoming sensor readings to be between 0-100 so that they can be used as a % of the height of an energy bar graphic. I've attached screen shots of the arduino sketch as well as the Unity code I used to rotate a 3d object based on the arduino flex data.
Any advice on how to go about coding this gradual change either in Unity or Arduino would be really appreciated.
Thanks
