ProtocolDefinitions

This repository contains protocol definitions for interacting with the Blueye underwater drones.

Protocol v2

Drones running a Blunux version \< 3.0 will need to use the legacy protocol. blueye.legacyprotocol contains a Python package that is built on this protocol and simplifies its use.

Protocol v3

Version 3 of the Blueye communication protocol is based on Protocol Buffers.

The protobuf definitions are compiled to language specific libraries, and are available as a NuGet package and a Python package.

Automatically generated documentation for the protocol format can be found here.
