Time for Play!
If you have successfully transmitted data from your sensors you can control (map movements) to anything you desire.  Again, we were using this in a dance piece and a composer at IU (Eric Lindsay) wrote a program in Max/MSP to read in the data from the Serial Port.  He kindly provided a highly annotated patch for you to learn from.   (Note: the serial port in max gets mapped to a letter.  In the picture below the XBee is mapped to port a.)



This project was a team effort:

Composer: Eric Lindsay
Costume Designer: Amy Burrell and Jay Garst
Choreographer: Utam Moses
Software and Hardware Designers: Benjamin Zaitlen and Alex Jacobs

The piece was supported by Indiana University (Prof. Kylie Peppler) and performed at the Buskirk-Chumley Theatre.
