LCM is a library for message passing and data marshalling targeted at real-time systems where high-bandwidth and low latency are critical. It provides a publish/subscribe message passing model and an XDR-style message specification language with bindings for applications in C, Java, and Python. It was originally designed and used by the MIT DARPA Urban Challenge Team as its message passing system.

LCM is designed for tightly-coupled systems connected via a dedicated local-area network. It is not intended for message passing over the Internet. LCM has been developed for soft real-time systems: its default messaging model permits dropping messages in order to minimize the latency of new messages.

Features

Requirements

Java >= 1.5 is strongly recommended, as several important utilities distributed with LCM are written in Java.
