Hololens 2: Connection between Arduino and Raspberry PI

Question

Hello,

I need advice. I got a project and the goal of my project is to connect a probe to measure pH. I would like to connect this probe to either Arduino or Raspberry PI and I do not know which of these two options is more compatible.

Since I am a programming illiterate, I am looking for the simplest and most convenient way to connect these two things and then transfer this data to Hololens 2.

Thank you very much for the advice.

Hello, Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,

Since the hololens-development tag is for questions about programming HoloLens apps, we don’t have a say on how to make multiple third-party devices communicate with each other. But if you want to know how to make HoloLens communicate with Arduino or Raspberry PI, we recommend using the Windows.Devices.SerialCommunication API. It can make HoloLens communicate with Arduino or Raspberry PI, or other device exposes a serial port or some abstraction of a serial port. And there is a Serial Arduino sample(https://github.com/microsoft/Windows-universal-samples/tree/master/Samples/SerialArduino) in Windows-universal-samples shows how to communicate with an Arduino device on UWP apps.
