I ‘d like to post my sketch on other websites or make it as application. How can i export my file to do so?
i tried ‘export application’, but it didn’t work(does it supposed to work?)
Video How it works
http://vimeo.com/33694138
[ Project Execution Brief ]
A. Data input from the natural environment: http://www.wunderground.com/weather/api/d/documentation.html
B. Output visualization: City bubbles
Bigger and higher = hotter.
Shows city, country, and temperature
C. Physical input : Proximity sensor- LVEZ0
[ CODE ]
a. Initial Arduino code for proximity sensor
b. Code to upload before moving to processing
c. processing sketch
[Process]

B. Output visualization: City bubbles
Hotter, bigger and higher. Shows city, country, and temperature
C. Physical input : Potentiometer: cycles the bubbles for information

I’ll say it is Hotcity version 2 to try out interacting with proximity sensor. If user comes closer bubbles would start emerge and the speed of bubble is defined by distance. If use comes closer, the bubbles move faster. Also user can hover mouse to see the information of the bubbles including city, country, and current temperature.

I am looking for how to get data from both analog0 and analog1. I found information as below at processing.org. But so far it’s not working well.
http://processing.org/learning/library/serialmultiple.html
import processing.serial.*;
Serial[] myPorts = new Serial[2]; // Create a list of objects from Serial class
int[] dataIn = new int[2]; // a list to hold data from the serial ports
void setup() {
size(400, 300);
// print a list of the serial ports:
println(Serial.list());
// get the ports' names:
String portOne = Serial.list()[0];
String portTwo = Serial.list()[1];
// open the ports:
myPorts[0] = new Serial(this, portOne, 9600);
myPorts[1] = new Serial(this, portTwo, 9600);
}
void draw() {
// clear the screen:
background(0);
// use the latest byte from port 0 for the first circle
fill(dataIn[0]);
ellipse(width/3, height/2, 40, 40);
// use the latest byte from port 1 for the second circle
fill(dataIn[1]);
ellipse(2*width/3, height/2, 40, 40);
}
void serialEvent(Serial thisPort) {
// variable to hold the number of the port:
int portNumber = -1;
// iterate over the list of ports opened, and match the
// one that generated this event:
for (int p = 0; p < myPorts.length; p++) {
if (thisPort == myPorts[p]) {
portNumber = p;
}
}
// read a byte from the port:
int inByte = thisPort.read();
// put it in the list that holds the latest data from each port:
dataIn[portNumber] = inByte;
// tell us who sent what:
println("Got " + inByte + " from serial port " + portNumber);
}
Now I connected two analogs using breadboard.
In a serial monitor it shows value of both potentiometer and Proximity sensor.
Next How can I use data from each analog pin? Seems i need separate serial ports for each…!??
A0 = Potentiometer : 5v – Gnd – Analog 0
A1 = Range finder : 5v – Gnd – Analog 1
Now
Basic proximity sensing is working with Arduino sketch.
The value goes small(because it’s like a distance) as user approach to sensor.
Next
Move to processing
Combine with potentiometer
In a serial monitor window above, you can see the numerical value changing based on things around it.
5v- Gnd -Analog 1
