OBUS modules

Modules

Modules use the standard communication protocol. Extensions in the form of additional message types can be used to request extra information and for configuration. Only the ID/address should be configured on the modules themselves (with DIP switches or something like that).

Controller

The controller could have an interface (GUI/CLI/web app) with a control panel and/or scoreboard, to enable competition between different teams. Spectators could follow along in real time. The controller could be a Raspberry PI to have easy networking.
