Hello,

 

I have a little arduino background and now I'm trying to migrate an experiment done with that micro controller to a computer. It consists in setting several IO pins to input and one to output, then i would sweep all of them looking for which pin is received the signal so i could register wich pair of pins are short circuited and loop back indefinitely. My questions are how to find material explaining how expand the IO capabilities of the the ports (if it is even possible) and resource on how to program the same logic. The thing is that I'm moslty able to find how to output data not input, guess I'm using the wrong keywords.

 

I'm thinking using processing because i'm a little more proficient with arduino programming language but i'm open to any kind of suggestions.

 

Thanksin advance!

    No, not exactly since I do not ask for help regarding Arduino I just use it to explain where I come from and some background on the question. But i really don't know, I'm new here, if you guys feel it should be elsewhere, I'm ok with that.

    The discussions here are organized by topic, so ideally you would

    choose the most appropriate topic for your post.  You can see the most

    popular topics by mousing over "Topics" on the blue menu bar.

    There is also a "see all" option to see them all.

    I'm not sure where the best place is either, but the "computer" group

    doesn't get much activity, so you might be better off in either arduino,

    embedded, or single board computers.
