Send String value from Arduino to Eclipse (Java)

Projects Programming
1

Hi!

I have an NFC shield, Arduino Mega ADK, and an Android Tablet. I can read the tags using the NFC shield on Arduino and display the tag on serial monitor.

Now I want to use that tag (datatype is string) in Eclipse so I can use it in programming the Android App which will display the user's information once his or her tag is recognized by the NFC shield. Basically I want Arduino to send the NFC tag it read so I can use it in my android application.

I also want to connect the Mega ADK and Android Tablet via USB when the final sketch is loaded in the Mega ADK as well as the application in the android tablet.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Don't cross post, it wastes everyone's time. Stick with one thread in the most appropriate forum.

You should start from here:

Well, I tried once to use this library, but it crashed my android application everytime.
Try find a library that works with the Arduino chip (I think it's FT232 chip).

Also, install a serial application in your android tab. Search for "Free Serial USB" in Android Market.
