mtXControl - a Rainbowduino Editor By Tobi

Ok long time no hear as I was quite busy lately. But I managed to drive my rainbowduino and mtXcontrol development forward supporting multiple devices. Not yet fully finished, but good for beta test. Get a (quite nerdy) sneak preview here:

I focused to get quick and easy. Some features:

  • one for all -> master & all slave run on same firmware
  • no configuration -> auto detection of master & slave + I2C address selection
  • nice protocol for easy communications with devices. I’ll release a processing (java) library, which should be easy to port to other languages
  • Master/slave communication is kept generic, so you can use this for other project with multiple Arduinos as well

Wanna beta test? Grap the sources here and start with examples:

Stay tuned! Tobi
