I recently encountered Processing when using Arduino. The more I understand it, the more I like it, not to mention other advantages. This is really a good choice for interacting with Arduino for data display on a PC. It can be said that this is really a programming language related to art. At the beginning of this article, we will share the Processing series of study notes. I hope that interested friends will study together.
1. What is Processing
Processing is a programming language used to generate pictures, animations, and interactive software. It is mainly used to process visual data, link visual forms, animations, and interactions with the concepts in the software. The code is converted into ever-changing images. Students, artists, designers, and researchers can use processing to learn and design prototypes and products.
Processing is based on the Java language, and has been extended and extended to support cross-platform. Similar to Arduino, as an open source platform, it also has many open source libraries to support, and currently supports Python language.
2. What Processing can do
Processing is a text programming language dedicated to generating and editing images. Processing strives to be easy to use and feature-rich, and learn and write its own programs in a short time, but more advanced users are using or writing class libraries with more functions, including the drawing of vector and raster images, Image processing, color mode, mouse and keyboard events, network communication, and object-oriented programming, sound, 3D file processing, etc.

Processing can interact with Arduino, etc., and intuitively display data of embedded applications based on MCUs, Arduino and other MCUs. It feels simpler than development languages such as C # and QT.
3. Download and install Processing IDE
You can download the IDE on the official website , which supports Windows, Linux and Mac platforms, and will mainly use the Windows platform in the future.
It may be difficult to download if the network is not scientific enough. Three platform installation packages have been downloaded here and can be obtained at the end of the article. After downloading and unzipping, click the executable file to directly run the Processing IDE.
