Mimbo - A Friendly Robot

Step 5Putting Things Together

Putting Things Together
Once you've got the basics of sending and receiving OSC messages with processing and a TouchOSC interface on your phone what do you do? You put them together and make Mimbo!

TouchOSC actually allows you to control far more than just the value of the element. You can also (in most cases) control it's color, position, size, etc...

So along with sending a message to "/1/led1" with the LED brightness, we send a message to "/1/led1/position/y" to control it's y-position on the screen.

All of the controls are pretty well documented on this page.

After a whole bunch of tweaking you end up with this code and cute little robot face on your phone.
