Firmata (or equivalent) on mBed?

Hey, all. Brand new to mBed but have other micro-controller experience. I'm working on a Cinder app which needs to take input (mouse movement, for example) and light up relevant LEDs. I'd usually just install Firmata on the device and handle everything in C++, but I'm not seeing Firmata or an equivalent for mBed anywhere. Any ideas?

Thanks, Steve

You might also want to look at http://mbed.org/cookbook/Interfacing-Using-RPC It shows how to use interfaces like serial to utilize the Remote Procedure Call facility on the mbed device.
