Java and Electronics
Hi Guys,
I was wondering if there is some way you can make Java communicate with different electronic components such as tranceivers etc. I would like to operate an RC car via my computer possibly using Java (just because I know Java better than C).
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Thats great info thank you very much but I still dont know how to "program" these boards. Do I need a specific version/emulator of Java to do this?

For USB based controllers, you can try either jUSB or jsr-80 to interact with USB devices ...
(why is it taking so long for Java to incorporate USB support?)
