Re: Java USB Project

Your best bet would be to use a device that uses a usb-to-serial adapter. Then speak to the device as you would any other serial device.

Re: Java USB Project

The project is running on a minimum budget (of about -$25). I would love to do something like that, but we don't have the funds.

I am looking into using a serial port sensor from the school, but there was limited success. Do you have any other ideas?

You want cheap USB hardware? Why not just use one of the many microcontrollers that has the USB controller and phy built in?

Re: Java USB Project

Java IMHO is a HORRIBLE language to use for that, I would recommend C/C++ since you need to make a driver for the USB.
