Question about reading serial output from Arduino in Processing...

Projects Interfacing w/ Software on the Computer
1

I'm currently writing out two variables (degrees and metres) to the serial console in the Arduino dev environment. On the other side, I have a program I'm writing in Processing which will display the sweep of a PING))) sensor and plot the position of the two variables. What I don't have is the link between the two. I was looking through the Processing libraries and I can't find anything about accepting serial input which I could then load into plot variables in the Processing program. Can someone please point me in the right direction here as to how I can accomplish this?

Thanks!

In processing => open FIle menu -> Examples -> Libraries -> Serial IO

you're welcome :wink:

This thread might help. Discussed here recently.

GAH! Completely missed it...I was looking on the website in Reference > Language. Much obliged!
