More Arduino + LCD + PHP fun

Davide Gomba — February 11th, 2010

A step by step guide to have your arduino receiving (and displaying) php (via processing).
Also a nice bibliography of the project. Thanks Justin!

Annotated bibliography for the last couple of weeks:

http://dorkbotpdx.org/blog/kmat/serial_lcd (serial –> LCD … this is making more sense now, using case breaks to look for specific characters to insert a function, such as starting a new line)

http://blog.datasingularity.com/?p=50 (control arduino through html)

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/899098/arduino-serial-reading (arduino serial reading)

http://www.ipipi.com/ContactUs.do (potential sms forwarding to email option)

http://www.ipipi.com/help/ipipi_in_out.htm (this is what I would need to receive messages, not as simple as a number, but maybe the best way to avoid having to get another phone number, I should also ask about a potential shortcode)

http://docs.upsidewireless.com/index.php?title=MO_HTTP (notes on how to bring sms messages into an application using HTTP POST)

http://www.upsidewireless.com/how_virtual_sms_works.htm (this is the kind of service I’ll need for this project … SMS messages forwarded to email or accessible through HTTP requests … with the possibility of getting a Windsor-based number AKA longcode)

http://www.mydarkmaterials.co.uk/2008/11/interfacing-php-with-the-arduino/ (this is an example of interfacing PHP Serial with Arduino, and I suspect old enough that many of the problems the author ran into aren’t there any longer … maybe it’s been silly of me to ignore PHP … I actually have a decent idea of what I’m doing there)

http://www.procata.com/blog/archives/2007/10/28/working-with-php-5-in-mac-os-x-105/ (helpful to get PHP running properly on 10.6)

http://opensourceprojects-torchris.blogspot.com/2009/09/arduino-pop3-email-checker.html (maybe or maybe not useful in some capacity, using arduino to check email)
