Question about com serial port data

Projects General Guidance
1

Alright so heres the setup. I have one arduino thats constantly inputing data to my computer through ports 8,9, and 10. Basically this, A Touchless 3D Tracking Interface - Make:. Now I want to use this data to control a robot through bluetooth. I have another arduino hooked up to a robot and an hc-05 to allow for bluetooth communication. The problem is, I dont know how to transfer the incoming data from one arduino and send it to the other through my computer using bluetooth. Is this even possible? The computer would have to constantly send the inputting arduino data in order for this to work and I just dont know how to do that. From my understanding, the computer is connected to one arduino directly via usb through serial com port 4 (could be any number) and it is communicating with the hc-05 over bluetooth which is connected to a different serial com port. Correct me if Im wrong, but if that is the case, is it possible to transfer data frome one com port to another? Im getting a headache just trying to explain myself :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks so much!

You need a program running on the PC to transfer the data arriving at one com port out to another. Alternatively you could communicate directly between the Arduinos using bluetooth and not involve the PC at all.

Yea I know that it comes down to those two options but I'm just not sure how to go about that. For one, I'm not sure how I can send live serial data over Bluetooth. Also, if I were to pair the two arduinos, I don't know how to write the code so SEND live data from one arduino to the other. If you have any references or ideas please let me know. Thanks so much!
