    Hello
    I consult the SimTools community to know whether plans had been made or successful projects have used a virtual Simulator under FreeCAD 1.6 or rather than a virtual Simulator slot from SketchUp. ?

    Bonjour,
    Je consulte la communauté SimTools pour connaitre si des projets ont été réalisés ou des projets aboutis ont utilisé un simulateur virtuel sous FreeCAD 1.6 ou lieu d’un simulateur virtuel sous de SketchUp. ?
    Je vous communique mes premières recherches à ce propos

    It seems to me there is no reason it could not be made to work with an Arduino via serial connection, if some dev wrote the appropriate code.

    @noorbeast,
    This is my opinion and it is in this regard that I consult the Simtools community.

    With an Arduino card this should work without a development such as a connection program like 'Sources for SketchUp connection 1.00' 'with SketchUP
    The creation of such an Arduino code is more within the reach of each Arduino programmer than the creation of a connection code with FreeCad without added Hadware.

    Has anyone ever worked in that direction?
    Do you have any feedback on this?


    @noorbeast ,
    C'est tout à fait mon avis et c'est à ce propos que je consulte la communauté Simtools.

    Avec une carte Arduino cela devrait fonctionner sans un développement tel que une programme de connection comme ''Sources for SketchUp connection 1.00'' avec SketchUP
    La création d'un tel code Arduino est plus à la portée de chaque programmateur Arduino que la création d'un code de connection avec FreeCad sans Hadware rajouté.
    Quelqu'un a-t-il déjà travaillé dans ce sens.
    Avez-vous un retour d'expérience à ce propos !
