I would like to read some potentiometers into my android phone. Is it possible to connect an arduino (ideally the arduino pro w/ USB-Serial-FTDI) to an android phone*? Other than the software part, I'm also wondering about the physical connection. I can't find a minimicro-b to minimicro-b usb cable on the internet.
