Arduino and processing based GUI person counter
In this post, we will make arduino and processing based GUI person counter. For person counter, we are using infrared sensor (IR). It's output is digital and is fed to pin number 7 of arduino.
The connections are as follows:
Arduino Code:
int switchPin=7;
int ledPin=13;
void setup() {
pinMode(switchPin,INPUT);
digitalWrite(switchPin,HIGH);
pinMode(ledPin,OUTPUT);
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
if(digitalRead(switchPin))
{
while(digitalRead(switchPin));
Serial.print(1,DEC);
}
else
{
Serial.print(0,DEC);
}
delay(100);
}
Processing Code:
import processing.serial.*;
Serial port;
int val;
int count=0;
PFont f; // STEP 1 Declare PFont variable
void setup() {
size(400,400);
noStroke();
println(Serial.list()); // print list of available serial port
port=new Serial(this,Serial.list()[0],9600);
f = createFont("Arial",16,true); // STEP 2 Create Font
}
void draw() {
if(0<port.available())
{
val=port.read();
}
background(204);
println(val);
if(val==48)
{ fill(255,0,0); // red
rect(50,50,300,300); // green
}
else if(val==49)
{ fill(0,255,0); // green
rect(50,50,300,300); // green
count++;
}
textFont(f,30);
fill(0);
text("Number of Person is: " + count , 30, 30);
//text(count, 100, 100);
delay(100);
}
/* END OF CODE */
