This document should be used as a guide for developers to understand the overall direction of this module. Later as things kick off this document can probably be removed ## Dependencies - **[MinnowServer](https://github.com/RealTimeLogic/MinnowServer)** - Handle TCP/IP transmission - Maintains lower layer web socket needs - TBD ## Proposed transmission protocols ### JSON RPC Pros: - Human readable - Easy request response structure - Platform agnostic Cons: - Considerable amount of extra data being transferred - Slower serialization and deserialization steps ### Raw bytecode Pros: - Very small footprint - Faster serialization on the server side Cons: - Not human readable ## Some things to think about - Jogging: - Jog button pressed vs held. Is multiple messages being sent while button held or will we have a jog start and jog stop command? - General requirement should be when I let go of the button for jogging then the arm stops as well. No delay because the robot is trying to execute a series of move commands.
