A Python interface would be an interesting possibility.

This is just for fun at this point:

  • Research the possibilities of using Python w/ Arduino. I think there are two possibilities: a.) using Python code directly using MicroPython and a R3 compatible board such as the Metro M4 that can run such code or b.) using it "MATLAB" style by running python code directly on the PC and communicating with the HW in a server style. I don't know examples of how to do that, but sounds plausible. For example this tutorial seems to be quite well made, it uses pyserial, while others use the firmata library. In any case, for the FloatShield it may be a bit difficult to get the sensor working.

Python has been researched and an interface for Magneto Created.
