Sensor to control via OSC. Is "Multisense OSC" app a good tool for that? I don't know how to

Post by jobee »

Hey folks,
Great to start a new project. Actually, many of you should have tried to control with sensors via OSC, but I can't find documentation here.
I think smartphone can be a good source of sensors. Also I fand the "Multisense OSC" app that spread sensor data via OSC. In the OSC Preference panel I can see that Resolume Avenue (7.15) receive the OSC messages sent by the app. But I can't figure how to map buttons (like "scale" for exemple) to these OSC messages. I tried to modify the OSC adress in the "Multisense OSC" app, I copied the OSC Input adress from resolume (/composition/layers/1/clips/19/video/effects/transform/scale) but this doesn't seems to be the good way. I seems like I'm close to make it but I really don't know how. Can you help me? Best regards.

Multisense seems to send absolute values, Resolume would require normalized floats, between 0-1 for parameters.
A translator would be required between your OSC sender to convert the values.
Chataigne could be used for that.

Hi Zoltan,
Thanks a lot for your answer.
You're right Multisens send absolute values.
Yes, Chataigne seems to be a good idea.
Also, I have Wire. And I planed to convert the Multisens OSC data to float values with a Math function of Wire, this should work, isn't it?
Best regards

Yes, if you know the range, it should be easy to convert in Wire too, with some math, or the Map node.
