For this lab (see instructions here), I used my toy from previous assignments, since it still had the force sensitive sensor in it. I followed the instructions and saw the sensor values reflected in the purple graph. I then tweaked the Processing code to create a vertically-oriented “third-eye” to go conceptually with the placement of the sensor in the toy. I created an ellipse within the “serialEvent” function that was filled with random R, G, B colors within a yellow-orange-green range (to match the toy) and then set the width of the ellipse to the “inByte” value from the sensor, and the height to “height-inByte.” Watch the results in this video:
