Re: i2c java and arduino
We have been using that thread for some ideas. Thanks for posting the code there. So far we have two arduinos talking to each other using i2c. The slave has three parallax ultrasounds and the master is simply collecting that data and printing the data to the serial monitor. Once we know that is working well, we will replace the arduino master with the cRio. Other than what needs to go in the constructor, it appears we many only need to use the read method in java to read three consecutive bytes that will represent the 3 distances on the three parallax sensors.
The whole system will read 5 sensors and the arduino will choose which three to send on to the cRio. Two of the three will be pointed at the side wall to help keep the robot moving straight during autonomous. Lots of other ways to do this but this seemed most interesting and a new challenge.
