What is this?

This folder contains a collection of Kaitai Structs for various vendor data formats that appeared in the context of Valetudo.

Please note that these are provided as a reference and not to use them to autogenerate code for Valetudo, because during testing, it has been discovered that said autogenerated code is more than 10 times slower than hand-crafted code, which is problematic, since robot vacuums are embedded environments with very limited resources.

What is Kaitai Struct?

Taken from the official website:

Kaitai Struct is a declarative language used to describe various binary data structures, laid out in files or in memory: i.e. binary file formats, network stream packet formats, etc.
