A simple iPad application to send Open Sound Control (OSC) messages over WiFi.
This app was written specifically for a visual arts class at Bowdoin College to control Max/MSP over WiFi as the app that comes with Max uses Bonjour and does not work well in our enterprise WiFi environment.
The app must be configured in Settings
with the IP address and port
to send message to. Settings was used rather than an in-app configuration
to allow the app to be put in single application or guided access mode, thus
preventing users from doing anything on the device other than run the app.
The messages sent by the buttons and the icons and text are not user configurable in this version of the app.
The screen layout is designed for an iPad and has no code or configuration for adapting to other screen sizes.
There are (currently) five message that the app sends to the OSC destination. These are, amazingly, sent based on which of the five on-screen buttons are pressed.
/button-1
/button-2
/button-3
/button-4
/button-5
The SOUND
button triggers playback (and stopping) of a built in audio
narration track.
This project uses cocoapods and the OSCKit pod. To build the project you will have to install cocoapods and update/install the pods before building the project/workspace.
# Xcode 7 + 8
$ sudo gem install cocoapods
$ pod install
Please refer to the cocoapods website for the latest instructions on installing and using cocoapods.
