This is a template for starting a program in Processing for Roomba. The template itself can be found at File:ROOMBA TEMPLATE.zip

Using Roomba Template

You must replace the Roomba Port with your own where it says "[DELETE THIS AND ENTER YOUR ROOMBA PORT]":

 //This stops Roomba and disconnects it from your computer.
   String roombacommPort = "[DELETE THIS AND ENTER YOUR ROOMBA PORT]"; // <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<::::::::::::: ENTER YOUR ROOMBA PORT :::::::::::::
   //String roombacommPort = "/dev/cu.RooTooth-COM0-1";
   boolean hwhandshake = false; 
   RoombaCommSerial roombacomm = new RoombaCommSerial();
   roombacomm.waitForDSR = hwhandshake;

and then simply type your code between the while loop:

   while (!done) 
       {
           ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
           // ::::::::::::: START CODE (Code goes between this thing and.... *look down*) :::::::::::::
           ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
 
 
           //[DELETE THIS LINE AND ENTER YOUR OWN CODE!]
           
 
           ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
           // ::::::::::::: END CODE (Code goes between this thing and... *look up*) :::::::::::::
           ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
       }
