Added new python script to test forces

send2arduino.py

+import serial
+import time
+
+
+TEST_VALUE = 1000
+SLEEP_SEC = 5
+
+# com port for arduiono usb
+COM = "COM4"
+# baudrate same as in arduino
+BAUDRATE = 115200
+
+try:
+    my_serial = serial.Serial(COM, baudrate= BAUDRATE, timeout = 2)
+    print("Device found")
+    # translate to something that will be read by arduino
+    arg = bytes(str(int(TEST_VALUE)), 'utf8','ignore') + b'\r'
+    # send value to arduino serial
+    my_serial.write(arg)
+    # hold that value for SLEEP_SEC
+    time.sleep(SLEEP_SEC)
