Serial Communication Exercises

Exercise 1:

Processing:
import processing.serial.*;
Serial myPort;
int xPos=0;

void setup(){
  size(960,720);
  printArray(Serial.list());
  String portname=Serial.list()[4];
  println(portname);
  myPort = new Serial(this,portname,9600);
  myPort.clear();
  myPort.bufferUntil('\n');
}

void draw(){
  background(255);
  ellipse(xPos,height/2,30,30);
}

void serialEvent(Serial myPort){
  String s=myPort.readStringUntil('\n');
  s=trim(s);
  if (s!=null){
    println(s);
    int values=int(s);
    if (values >= 0){
      xPos=(int)map(values,0,1023,0, width);
    }
  }
  myPort.write("\n");
}
Arduino:
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("0,0");
}

void loop() {
  while (Serial.available()) {
    if (Serial.read() == '\n') {
      int sensor = analogRead(A0);
      delay(1);
      Serial.println(sensor);
    }
  }
}

Exercise 2:

Processing:
import processing.serial.*;
Serial myPort;
//int xPos=0;
//int yPos=0;
boolean onOff=false;
boolean onOff2=false;

void setup(){
  size(960,720);
  printArray(Serial.list());
  String portname=Serial.list()[4];
  println(portname);
  myPort = new Serial(this,portname,9600);
  myPort.clear();
  myPort.bufferUntil('\n');
}

void draw(){
  background(255);
  //ellipse(xPos,yPos,30,30);
  if (mousePressed){
    if(mouseX<=width/2)
      onOff2=true;
    else
      onOff=true;
  }else{
    onOff=onOff2=false;
  }
}

void serialEvent(Serial myPort){
  String s=myPort.readStringUntil('\n');
  s=trim(s);
  if (s!=null){
    println(s);
    int values[]=int(split(s,','));
    if (values.length==1){
      //xPos=(int)map(values[0],0,1023,0, width);
      //yPos=(int)map(values[1],0,1023,0, height);
    }
  }
  myPort.write(int(onOff)+","+int(onOff2)+"\n");
}
Arduino:
int left = 0;
int right = 0;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("0,0");
  pinMode(2, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(5, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  while (Serial.available()) {
    right = Serial.parseInt();
    left = Serial.parseInt();
    if (Serial.read() == '\n') {
      digitalWrite(2, right);
      digitalWrite(5, left);
      Serial.println();
    }
  }
}

Exercise 3:

  myPort.bufferUntil('\n');
  
  position = new PVector(width/2, 0);
  velocity = new PVector(0,0);

  acceleration.mult(0);
  ellipse(position.x,position.y,mass,mass);
  if (position.y > height-mass/2) {
      velocity.y *= -0.9;  // A little dampening when hitting the bottom
      position.y = height-mass/2;
      onOff = true;
      println("BOUNCE!!!!");
    }else{
      onOff = false;
 }
}

void serialEvent(Serial myPort){
  String s=myPort.readStringUntil('\n');
  s=trim(s);
  if (s!=null){
    println(s);
  int values[]=int(split(s,','));
  if (values.length==2){
      int mappedValues=(int)map(values[0],0,1023,0, width);
  if (mappedValues <= width/2){
    wind.x=-1;
  }
  if (mappedValues > width/2){
    wind.x=1;
  }
  }
  myPort.write(int(onOff)+","+int(onOff2)+"\n");
  println("OnOFF"+onOff);

void applyForce(PVector force){
  PVector f = PVector.div(force, mass);
  acceleration.add(f);

void keyPressed(){

    mass=random(15,80);
    position.y=-mass;
    velocity.mult(0);

  Serial.println("0,0");
