Arduino Project

Post by sefrojones » Tue Jun 03, 2014 7:38 pm

A friend is working on an arduino project that takes readings of temp/weight/etc of his beehives. He asked me if livecode can interface with the arduino to receive and parse data. I think this is probably fairly easy, but as I've never worked with micro-controllers before, I am not sure. If anyone has any info or links that would steer me in the right direction, I would be grateful.

Thanks,
Sefro

Thanks Simon and Hermann,

I think I'm going to go ahead and get one of the arduino yun boards that Nakia is using. The trolling motor in the post Simon linked to is awesome, and I'm convinced that LiVeCode will work for this project.
