I uploaded program to arduino and changed the port in start.py and run the command
python start.py target=a:0 port=COM3 but I am getting these errors. Please help me

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "start.py", line 118, in
ser = serial.Serial(SERIAL_PORT, BAUD_RATE, timeout = TIMEOUT)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\serial\serialwin32.py", line 38, in init
SerialBase.init(self, *args, **kwargs)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\serial\serialutil.py", line 282, in init
self.open()
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\serial\serialwin32.py", line 66, in open
raise SerialException("could not open port %r: %r" % (self.portstr, ctypes.WinError()))
serial.serialutil.SerialException: could not open port 'COM3': WindowsError(5, 'Access is denied.')

Probably the error is caused by:

  • Access permissions: try to run the terminal with admin rights, and it should solve the problem.
  • Invalid serial port: are you sure COM3 is a valid port?

Sir Federico Terzi,
When I just press and release the push button it predicts "a" or make any random gesture rather than an alphabet it predicts a random value. How can this be solved?
And one more things how can I get these alphabets printed on Notepad or Word?
