[PD] jittering sensors

[shift8]

if you have access to the firmware code and a programmer, you could do a
last & max-change threshold solution in your sensor read loop (this has
the advantage of reducing the amount of overhead in your patches.)


pseudo code:

if (abs(last - current) > thres) {
	last = current;
	send(current);
}

you can also do the same thing in pd as you read values from the device
and b4 you do (send, etc) anything w/ them.

Mechanize something idiosyncratic.
