Subject[Csnd] Using sensor data in Csound
Hello,

I want to use Csound to sonify movement that is being recorded by motion
sensors.
My question is whether it possible to read the data with Csound, i have the
following information about it:

/MVN Studio real-time network streaming protocol:
 MVN  Studio   real ‐time   network  streaming  protocol  is based on UDP
(User Datagram Protocol, RFC 768):
The UDP Protocol is unidirectional, and contrary to TCP (Transmission
Control Protocol) it is stateless and does not require the receiver to
answer incoming packets. 
This allows greater speed. 
The network environment will be assumed to be a local 100 MBit Ethernet
network
To be used you need at least 1 PC Windows machine. In case you would like to
use Linux, the data needs to be streamed using the Network streaming
protocol installed on a PC windows machine. Then, the Linux machine can
receive such data via the network
·         It allows you to access and stream  in real time the data. The
following data are supported by the real time streaming:
 
o   Position of joints and Euler angles of segments.
o   Positions of joints and Quaternions of segments
o   Positions selected defined points (simulating optical markers),
typically 38‐46 points.
o   Character information -> scale information   
§  3‐float offset and 9‐float rotation matrix for each segment
o   Character information -> prop information   
§  Character strings containing the names of the used props
o   Character information meta data
§  name of the avatar 
§  MVN avatar ID (Xbus Master ID) 
 
·         The MVN Studio real-time network streaming protocol is useful
when, for example, controlling a robot (via windows or linux) and when the
users need total control on the stream of data/

Thanks

Csound does not speak that protocol, so you would need to make a protocol
convertor, from MVN to OSC for instance, that should be fast enough to
handle the data streams.
Once you are on OSC, Csound can be used to convert this into sound/music.
