[PD] render method

2018-10-19 Thread ray Y
Hello all:
Does anybody know if there is a method in gems to render things without erasing 
the previous frame?

for example lets say i want to have rectangles draw in gemwin, each render 
erases the previous draw,

how can i keep each instance on screen? i'm trying to make kind of like a 
feedback effect!

thanks
r.y

thanks for that one, specially useful if you set your backgound black.

a little trick i discover in the raspi-config tool is the pixel doubling option.

it greatly improves the framerate. i wish there was a way to even cut

on color resolution, like using  8 bit or even 7 bit color instead of 16

to improve the framerate even more.


cheers

[PD] question about gemwin

2018-09-17 Thread ray Y
Hello all


I'm using gems on a raspberry pi 3b+ and when a switch to full screen,

the frame rate drops significantly. Is there a way to go into full screen mode

keeping a low screen resolution (320 x 240) so the quality of the

video playback will be bad but the frame rate will stay stable?


this question may have been asked before but i tried to look

for it with no hints


thanks for the help


cheers

[PD] sr04 with arduino standardfirmata

2018-02-06 Thread ray Y
Hello Alex


I have been able to use the sr04 with comport but not with standardfirmata

the problem is that i need to sacrifice and entire controller and a bluetooth

connection in order to handle the sr04 instructions all by themselves and this 
is not elegant.

it could be nice to have a mekanism where the trigger and eko processes will 
give a

range distance result from 0 to 1(firmatas format) into an analog input so that 
it could be handled

with the rest of the sensors, or into an digital IO if that is not possible 
without electronics.


cheers

[PD] sr04 with arduino standardfirmata?

2018-02-05 Thread ray Y
is there a work around for this?

the sr-04 is a way cooler sensor than the ones supported by

standardfirmata!


why is it not supported?


there most be a hack to make the emiter and receiver

functions act as one with the signal going into the analog

inputs of the arduino. as a standard sensor?


wow, i google and there is almost nothing out there about this

i'm a bit tired of trying to do this


please help


thanks

[PD] stepper control

2016-08-13 Thread ray Y
From: IOhannes m zmölnig 
To: pd-list@lists.iem.at
Subject: Re: [PD] stepper control

depends...
you really have the same jitter when doing signal processing, and yet
you don't hear it.
(just hook your [metro 0.1] to a [tgl] -> [vline~] -> [dac~])

why? because [dac~]/[adc~] synchronize the jittery input data with a
real-time clock.

so Pd itself is accurate enough. the problem is that you cannot really
hook a number box to your stepper motor, you need some object that
translates the in-patch messages to real-world events. and this object
needs to properly handle the timed messages.

since ray did not mention how he gets the data to the stepper motor,
there is little additional help I can give.

gfmdsr
IOhannes


yes, after lots of tests i discover the polarity switching sequence

to make the motor spin continuosly in one direction or the other.

of course the method of using a metro for banging each pulse

runs into problems when going a bit faster and it completely

collapse. im using an l-298 h bridge with an arduino and

firmata and doing all the control with digital pulses.


there is another little stepper driver controller that

can work with only 2 instructions, the direction and the pulse.


it could be really cool if it where possible to do the control

with an oscillator as Roman suggested but then how would

you connect the 4 cables of the bipolar stepper?

is there a tutorial on how to drive steppers with the same

control you drive sound into a speaker?


thanks

[PD] stepper control

i wanted to make a patch to drive stepper motors with pd but

run into a serious limitation,i need to run in microseconds

and  pd can only run at a milisecond time grain.



what is the way around this?

are any of you guys running stepper motors

with pd,  without any other programs? or do you

have to by force use another program?

[PD] Pduino, firmata and SPI

2016-07-11 Thread ray Y
is there a firmata vertion with at least basic master to slave SPI support?
what is the fastest way to be able to use digipots with Pure Data?

both digipots and digital to analog converters need the SPI protocol to operate
and it is still not implemented in firmata!!!


i tried using RC low pass filters for DAC conversion but the quality is 
terrible.

are there digipots that could operate with PWM instead of the SPI protocol?


or a DAC chip that will convert PWM to an analog voltage without the SPI 
protocol?
i found myself trapped with this problem.


will firmata ever have SPI support?

o.k, i discover that when the values are sent imediately, like square

shapes there is no respose delay. only with triangles or ramps.

the longer the increasing or decreasing line in the score the longer

the delay response of the instrument. i'm actually

routing the data to comport at 115200 baud rate from an external

synth control instrument source in live. thanks for any help on this, r.y

[PD] communicating to another arduino through pduino

2015-11-09 Thread ray Y
hello


is it possible to just send numbers from pduino and firmata to

to be read by another arduino running something else?


i set in the receiving side an A0 (analogread input 0) but

instead of receiving input from a potentiometer, i need

the CC data to come from pduino (the transmitting arduino)


i'm running into a formating type of problem

using an analog or pwm output to the A0 pin


is there any quick way around this or do i have to

do it differently.

yeah, that was the first thing i tried but i don't know why it does not

work with the serial stream like it does with a normal list. i tried adding

commas between the values in the arduino sketch but no chance of

splitting the data into each atom in PD


[comport] spits values one by one (actually bytes, so if a value is greater 
than one byte, it will be split, depending on the way you'll print it from the 
Arduino - Serial.print or Serial.write). you'll have to assemble them into a 
list (check help patch of [list] to see how to make a growing list), or make a 
counter and bang it on every output of [comport], pack the [comport] value with 
the counter value prepended and use [route].
I've made some abstractions to facilitate the communication between the Arduino 
and Pd, they'll might work for you. There're here 
https://github.com/alexdrymonitis/Arduino_Pd
The [serial_print] abstraction can use the comma as a value delimiter (if 
you're on Pd-extended, use [serial_print_extended] instead).

Re: [PD] bluetooth PDuino

2015-09-03 Thread ray Y
yeah, that is correct. also you need to reset the board with the button, 
something i didn't

know because i'm very new to the arduino. right now when i'm in the arduino 
test patch with

the analogfirmata loaded into the board the usb serial works but when i change 
the comport

to where the bluetooth is, the red light stops blinking (indication that it is 
linking up) but

when i move the variable resistor pd returns an UNKNOWN_INPUT_COMMAND and a 
bunch

of numbers and it gets kind of stuck. if i switch back to the usb cable 
connection it works fine.

is there something that should be done with the firmata?

I think that you can't upload code to the Arduino via the bluetooth, so you'll 
have to upload it via USB, and then unplug it and use the bluetooth. [comport] 
will be able to see it without problems.

usb cable uploads the code to the board

board via bluetooth after pairing, the arduino
program sends errors and doesn't complete the upload.

i need to be able to use the arduino exactly as it works
but wirelessly via bluetooth (or wifi if is not more complicated)
i know that you can do this without doing anything with an arduino BT
but i don't have one so i've been trying to make it work with the uno
