Physical Computing

For tasks like controlling motors or reading sensors, use a microcontroller.

Microcontrollers

Arduino/Firmata

Nodes for communicating with Arduinos (or other microcontrollers) running the Firmata Protocol are shipping with vvvv. Reference the VL.IO.Firmata package via the Node Browser and see its helppatches in the Help Browser.

Phidgets

For using Phidgets: Products for USB Sensing and Control
NuGet: VL.Devices.Phidgets
