software

connect or not: researching the setup

HOWTO

phone side:

  • enable OSC transmission (Menu>Enable OSC)
  • press the PLAY button to start counting and sending data
  • make sure you are connected to a wireless network (doesn't need to be online)

laptop side:

  • connect to the same WiFi network as the smartphone
  • make sure the Wybron lights are correctly connected to the DMX shield (in series) and that the Arduino is connected to the laptop; check Arduino port and baudrate
  • start the wybron-pd puredata patch
  • browse, talk, send sms's and upload data over the network. observe changes in light colour and speed of change
