Description
Aleksadr Romanav requests that he be able to send image summary data from the IOTA cameras to Acnet, so it can be data-logged or viewed as an Acnet device.
These summaries would be on the order of 10 numbers for each of 8 cameras, updated at perhaps 1 or 10 Hz (he wasn't sure, and might be happy with 1 Hz at first).
It isn't full images, just parameterizations (x, y, width, height, other measurements). They have an existing camera server with one NIC to the controls network, so that isn't a problem.
I suggested to him that we use the protocol compiler for his messages but he may have other plans.
In any case, we'll need a new driver to communicate with their camera server.
