Buttplug integration to the Open Saddle Vibrator

Buttplug Development
1

Hi all,
I designed and build the Open Saddle Vibrator a few years ago. It uses an Arduino Uno for a main controller ‘mainboard’ in side the dome that controls a couple of motor speed controllers and an Arduino Nano in a controller that just acts as an interface for a couple of buttons and pots for speed control. The Arduinos communicate via their tx/rx serial pins using someone exceptionally simple strings. I designed it this way for future expansion. I would like to get some advice on how I could make it use the buttplug.io and launch it as a alternative method of control.

I am not sure where to start, the code for viewing if anyone is interested is on the thingiverse page.

Cheers,
Jands

Ahahaha holy shit this project fucking rules.

You’re in luck that I just added a way to make this WAY easier to Intiface Central. Unfortunately it is still undocumented but I’ll try to get you instructions in the next day or two. tl;dr You should be able to write a python script to go from Buttplug to your device for now. In the future you’ll be able to go directly from Buttplug to serial, but I don’t quite have serial config UI done yet.
