Projects using RXTX

[Source] = comes with source code.
[Closed] = No source code provided

• The state of Colorado uses rxtx for real time travel information at www.cotrip.org. Technical Documentation
• Remotej[Source] RemoteJ is an application for adding remote control capability to your k750 like mobile phone. (Trent says wow. I never expected rxtx on phones.)
• JControl[Closed] aims to create a Java platform optimized for measurement, control and automation applications. The JControl Virtual Machine's design is as lean as it runs even on 8-bit microprocessors and hence it can compete with commonn 8-bit-systems referring to space, energy consumption and last but not least price. With JControl the advantages of the Java programming language become usable for single-chip systems with low processing power.
• GPSMap[Source] is a Java application that is able to display maps like in an atlas and show your position by the use of a gps device. It may track your path, load overlays (e.g. shape files), download maps from mapblast or expedia servers.

• JMRI[Source] The JMRI project is building tools for model railroad computer control. We want it to be usable to as many people as possible, so we're building it in Java to run anywhere, and we're trying to make it independent of specific hardware systems. Like the CMRI system before it, JMRI is intended as a jumping-off point for hobbyists who want to control their layouts from a computer without having to create an entire system from scratch.
• Computer Operated Telescopes[Closed] By Mel Bartels. A JAVA port of the popular SCOPE.EXE program. It is a low cost but feature rich system to control telescopes
• FireCast[Closed] WireSpring Technologies is a start-up company in the interactive kiosk market. We provide a fully integrated kiosk solution based on Linux that includes a locked down browser and a robust remote management & advertising package. We recently included RXTX to help with managing serial devices.
• Temecula Weather Pages[Closed] These pages track weather conditions, history, forecasts and events in Temecula, California. Currently temperature, precipitation, wind, relative humidity and barometric pressure readings appear on these pages. These readings are augmented by combined readings such as dewpoint, wind chill, and heat index. In the future (perhaps this year), I hope to add a video camera and possibly a site in Murrieta, just north of Temecula. Other planned enhancements for the near future include graphs of the readings and tabular data of the readings for each day (much like the 36 hour summary).
• Javacelot[Source] Javacelot is a Java utility for communicating with an Adicon Ocelot over the serial port. It uses Keane Jarvi's RXTX utility for raw serial port I/O, Jakarta's Log4J for logging, and Ant for building. Javacelot mainly adds a friendly API for triggering and responding to X10, infrared, and other Ocelot signals.

Because of this unique and durable stainless steel can, up-to-date information can travel with a person or object anywhere they go. The steel button can be mounted virtually anywhere because it is rugged enough to withstand harsh environments, indoors or outdoors. It is durable enough to attach to a key fob, ring, watch, or other personal items and used daily for applications such as access control to buildings and computers.
• Debian[Source] Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian uses the Linux kernel (the core of an operating system), but most of the basic OS tools come from the GNU project; hence the name GNU/Linux.
