Mobile Processing Based on Arduino

This Mobile Processing project contains a sketch that can be used to transfer bytes from an Arduino board to a website and back.

The concept of the project is based on the Mobile Processing website with the code being tweaked a bit so the phone serial port can be used for the source and output of the data the phone sends and receives from the web. The phone just passes any data it sees back and forth since the brain of the system is really on the Arduino or the web page the phone requests.

The URL of a server and the path to a web page is required in order for the phone app to run. The phone will request that web page anytime it sees a # on its serial port once that information has been made available by the Arduino board. In addition, the serial port is used to send back to the Arduino any results from the web page requested.

A cheap Motorola Iden i415 phone was used in this project and there is so much more that can be done with Mobile Processing such as Bluetooth and SMS.
