Eso 8266 as a transparent serial interface to wireless.
Do anyone knows a clear procedure on how to use the esp , as wifi to serial interface , in order to make a " transparent" connection to the teensy . So in summary I would like to get rid of the USB cable for serial Communication with To interact with The PROGRAM running on The teensy .
There is a project here , but is not clear how to configure the arduino ide to make the trick.
Thank you .
Funkboxing @Thomas_Eldredge made something for BT communication.

It sends wirelessly numbers to select the effect and also some parameters such as hue, sat, brightness and delay.
With the case structure he can select. Runs fine on BT.
ToDo: migrate to WiFi and write an Adroid app.
Open: TCP/IP or UDP
TCP has a huge overhead, UDP is not supported by MIT Appinventor
Andoid is my weak area.
Workaround: Control with another WiFi enabled Arduino and some pots.
Thankyou im really looking on how to do,it with the ESP, with the BT device there is no secret as the serial comunication is transparent to the serial port, so is the same as having a wired serial port.
just had the first success to switch between two animations with TCP/IP
However still very buggy because the animations stop right away.
