Hi,

I want to create a Java program to manipulate the data from the Arduino board. I've looked at the Arduino software that bridges the hardware and software, but how could I use this in my Java program? i.e. it would be ideal to just beable to call getData() for example, and that function would handle the bridge between my Java program and the Arduino software.

Id be thankful for any pointers.

Cheers,
Lee.

Look at the Processing application (http://processing.org/). It's based on Java. It includes many examples of communicating with serial devices (such as the Arduino).

Once you understand how that works, it should be simple to adapt the techniques to your Java application.
