You're going to need to provide some detail here - how about a link to the specification of the sensor.

here it is Michael
Have you actually got one of these - if not I would look elsewhere since it seems to be very expensive and badly documented. I can't see any detailed spec for the digitizer but it looks as if it has a serial output not USB. Are you sure your link takes me to the right part because the Gyrocube 3A has analogue outputs.
MK
The link you provided goes to an Analog only device, all sensors are output in Analog form
there is indication of an ADC but again this board does not seem to have USB on it
If your using a USB interface you will need to provide the part link.
if your using the base unit, then an Arduino could read the analog values directly and communicate this via its USB, but this will only give you 10 bits of resolution at best. Using an external ACD can improve this

yes MK,
I have one with USB cable. here it is,File:O-Navi 23565-B.jpg - Wikimedia Commons
so if the device shows p as a com port once you install it, i dont see why not
If it installs as a true USB device this will be allot more complicated

Peter,
The device is installed in a com port, now COM22. How to go about reading the data if it is possible?
Thanks
I would start with connecting to it with telnet and simply talking to it to see what it says back. So get to learn its commands etc
I would expect the user guide to tell you this ?
once you know the command and responses you should be able to code using the PC or a Micro-controller with a HOST USB capability (On-The Go USB).
As Michael said, you will need to do a little research
Regards
