Audio via ioBridge

[irkgreen]

Anyone ever tried to send audio via an ioBridge?  Seems like the easiest solution is to use a web cam with a built in mic and bypass the ioBridge.  But could there be a way to pass audio via the analog in?  Audio probably requires too much bandwidth.  Just a thought.

what are you trying to do?  i can think of some ways to do the reverse... speakjet chip on an arduino, serial TTS on a pc, so on.

Hook a mic up to the ioBridge to monitor sound.  I suppose a sound sensor would be easily implementable:  A mic picks up a sound and it pulls the ioBridge's 'digital in' high or low.  But what about actually sending an audio clip through the ioBridge?

The analog input has no where near the bandwidth to do this, but it still begs the question, Why?  Where or to what would you want to send the audio clip?  There are dedicated devices to do what you want, the iobridge isn't one of them.

Yea, that was my suspicion.  I didn't really have a use in mind.  I'm always trying to overuse the ioBridge is all.
