## About
|
|
|
|
This project provides an Android userspace driver for USB serial devices. You
|
|
can use it to talk to your Arduino, or any other supported serial devices.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Download the sources. Inside you will find two Eclipse projects:
|
|
|
|
* UsbSerialLibrary - the main library code, an "Android Library" project.
|
|
* UsbSerialExamples - a demo Android application
|
|
|
|
In Eclipse, open "File", "Import", and then select "General, "Existing Projects
|
|
into Workspace".
|
|
|
|
Navigate to the directory you just checked out and import both projects. Then
|
|
run the demo application.
|
