Arduino and Python Serial Communication with PySerial Part 2 - Adding User Input

[@elosurfer6238]

Thank you so much for this. Using pyserial is so much easier than using pyfirmata. This is going to help me with my every project

[@RockRanchCowboy]

Helped me a lot, thanks for the tutorial! Also, for other people learning programming, don't forget that ascii code is characters, not int's. I did, and couldn't figure out why python wasn't getting a response for hours (was checking for an integer not a char)

[@myviewspace]

Excellent tutorials! Simple, clear, and very useful, not only the one on Serial Communication between Arduino and Python. These tutorials help me a lot. I have to donate to this channel.

[@WaveShapePlay]

I am very grateful for your donation! Thank you, and I glad you find the tutorials useful!

[@rluxon]

easy to follow your lessons. thank you so much for taking the time to make the videos.

[@WaveShapePlay]

Thank you for watching Richard!

[@MaheshKumar-kt5lv]

Nice way of explaining. Easy for beginners to understand.

[@Jacno77]

thanks for making these buddy

[@tecnologiaelectrolichan9111]

muchas gracias por tus videos. saludos desde peru

[@Electheo]

Great and helpful video! I used PyCharm to program so some things were a bit different. But you explain the functionality really well!

[@DrZylvon]

Thanks, very useful tutorial.

[@charlesklein7232]

consider writing a book! i have read a few and now am investigating "PROCESSING" language. your videos are better then the books. consider 3 dimensional "Vpython" or "processing"

[@sermadreda399]

very good explanation and good topic

[@EunchanPark]

I am happy that you made this video. Thank you !

[@matheuscardoso1]

Thank you! This is really helpful!

[@rverm1000]

so good and simple

[@DimPyProg]

cool, great, nice

[@MayankSingh-tk5vq]

Exactly what i want to learn,Thankyou sir.

[@Heron31415]

When l input character 'g' Arduino accepts it like iscii-code (103) and cannot compare it with the symbol 'g' in if-construction. Why?

[@najninmansuri9346]

Heyy, Can we not defined the input pin commands in python only, like I don't want to use ide, Can I do that?

[@vaughntaylor2855]

Thank you!

[@markbowring151]

I'm at the bottom of a very steep learning curve. Can you tell me which text editor you are using with the "Run" command on the ribbon, and does this automatically bring up Python 3.5.1 Shell

[@WaveShapePlay]

Hey Mark - I am using IDEL the default Python Integrated Development Environment (IDE). It comes with your python download. If you right click the .py file and select 'edit with IDEL' then you will have the option to run the script like I did in the video. It will launch the shell as well.

[@amiramiri2845]

I assume Serial.println() write the data to serial bus and then Python reads from there! but my python cannot do that because the port is alreadly busy !

[@Heron31415]

Thank you for your examle and expanation. Is it possible to use such method for comunicate PC and Arduino for real time values monitoring tasks?

[@WaveShapePlay]

Thank you for your question, and watching! Yes it is possible! You can customize the input/output data for real time data transfers. If you set up the request/read from the python/arduino code, you can set a predetermined rate to request/read data.

[@Heron31415]

@@WaveShapePlay thank you so much! So I have to organize own request/read protocol.

[@WaveShapePlay]

Yes, that is the way to do it! The basics are outlined in this video series. Also, note you can add a time stamp, if you would like. See part 9: github.com/WaveShapePlay/ArduinoPySerial_LearningSeries/tree/master/Part9_AddingTimestamp)

how to convert it to int , when i use int(arduinoData) it call the error :: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''

[@acy1335]

I have the exact problem

[@niet5647]

Everything works but only when i type 'y', only a y without the single quotations will result in an error. Any ideas on how to fix this?

[@abdelmoumen6233]

thaaaank youuu siiir ♥

[@wykonos]

omg this video awesome thx

[@maartenv.b.1476]

Am I the only one that has to disconnect and reconnect the arduino after sending some code, otherwise it gives an error messege... Does somebody have a solution for this problem?

[@rajeshsingh3717]

Is it necessary to have a audrino code else than python code.

[@rverm1000]

serial.Serial doesnt work?

[@cgowthamraja548]

iam getting this error pls help me to solve Get data point?y Traceback (most recent call last): File "ArduinoSerialCom.py", line 16, in userInput = input('Get data point?') File "", line 1, in NameError: name 'y' is not defined

[@cubeur4261]

I think you should just write 'y' instead of y in line 16. If you just write y, it thinks that it is a variable not a character.

[@idilatac8177]

I will try to do similar things with Basys3 board using vhdl instead of arduino. I am trying to make vhdl read data which python creates( the data is in the form of an array which consists of 6 columns and x rows) has anyone got related information. I would appreciate very much:)

[@jcpole]

Just my usual comment - the name of the board is Arduino. It is NOT Ardrino. Please learn how to pronounce it correctly. Again, good content, but you really need to learn how to pronounce Arduino correctly.
