Here is examples from
arduino-er.blogspot.com to demonstrate how to use RxTx Java Library in JavaFX/Swing application to communicate with Arduino Esplora via USB serial. javafx.scene.control.ColorPicker/javax.swing.JColorChooser are used to choice color, then send to Arduino via USB serial with RxTx Java Library, then to set the color of LCD screen/LED in Arduino side.
