What is your purpose and market? Of course the advantage to Java is fastest portability between platforms. It comes at the cost of being ugly as sin.
You've got your Windows users, your Mac users, your Linux users, and all platforms have passiona...
Hello people!
I was thinking about interface graphics for my ground station.
Begin I was thinking in Java and use JNI, but reading some embbeded system, I changed ideia.
So, now Im thinking visual basic or C/C++.
Whats yours opinion about?
Tnks!!
Thanks man! But do you think is good idea just use c# for developed a grafic ? I mean, a ground station, where I can see airpeed, climb, altimeter and etc?
Thanks!!
It's crazy complicated and overkill for us. Not appropriate for most embedded electronics (no OS), IMHO--it's really designed for much more complicated robotics.
Hello guys! Really long time I didnt see this forum!
Study and work is really stresseful and tired...
But, I was talking with my friends in my work and some guy talk about Microsoft Robotics.
I was looking and looks interesting. BUT Im not sure.

Of course you can do it, but i don't think you want to let ArduPilot control flaps or retracts? So just plug those additional functions into spare channel connectors in your Rx as in a normal RC plane and you're done. The three channels you mentio...
Because they are both frequency-hopping, 2.4 Ghz Xbee and 2.4 Ghz RC can coexist. It's still better if you can split them across bands, as there's always a chance that they will conflict enough to reduce your range or cause intermittent dropouts. ...
Reinaldo, I don't know about a book that is specific to Java and graphics/animation but if you do a search on Google you will find plenty of information. For the UAV Playground project I used the Processing Development Environment which supports graphics in a very convenient way but has a rather poor GUI support.
There are some programming environments that simplify the process of drawing and animating primitives, like Processing for example. Processing 1.0
You need to know how to deal with the graphics basics to write you own visual presentation of flight data (eg. artificial horizon etc.). There is no way around this unless somebody has written a library that does exactly what you need.
