Module Description

• Arduino Connect: this module allows to connect Slicer and Arduino board. This will be use to build other modules and applications.

The integration of the data coming from the board strongly relies on vtkMRMLScriptedModuleNode in order to notify to the entire system the arrival of a new data.

Additional modules will come later.

Use Cases

• Arduino Connect

Users wants to connect, receive and transmit data from/to Arduino. Connection parameters can be set according to user environment. A sender and a monitor/plotter of data coming from the board are also available without the need of writing code.
