Thank you [Morgan] for the pointers on OSC arduino, I had a quick look at both and Adrian's seems like a very cool tool to have in one's toolbox. However, both of these solutions use serial communication while my understanding is that we want to communicate over the ethernet. The OSC library I found wraps the ethernet library and adds the OSC protocol. I do agree that OSC may be an overkill for sending 8 ints around but Xin Wei expressed interest in using OSC. In the end it all depends on the end-user/maintener who will make use of this and eventually expand on it.
I could keep it extremely simple and send just an array of 8 ints or some kind of property list or dictionary if that is what you prefer.
