Hide your screen using Room Motion Sensor with Arduino and Python
Показать описание
Interface Arduino with Python to kill any program like firefox, chrome, media players, image viewers, ms office etc ANY PROGRAM when arduino detects someone entering your room through door.
Make your work private by building a system using arduino which instantly kills a program when someone enters your room/cabin
STEPS:
Install pyserial, os, signal library in python using: "pip install pyserial" etc..
type in PID of the process to be killed, PID can be looked up by task manager or just search the net how to find PID of a process
Type full name of port, ex - "COM5" or "/dev/ttyACM0" etc.
"Running..." means program is running now. Don't touch the command prompt and DO WHATEVER YOU WANT NOW
Now any signal to PIN A0 on arduino which is greater than 750 (analogRead) will kill the process.
NOTE2: Linux users may need to "sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyACM0" in case of permission denied error
