There isn't a single format for binary JSON, there's BSON [1],

serialized ROS messages couldn't be used (we allow web service
calls using this in ROStful), though with DDS for ROS 2.0,
maybe that format will be changing soon.

Hi Vincent,

A group of us are working on similar ideas over at Robot Web
Tools [6]http://robotwebtools.org/

The community has a large number of tools to expose, work with,
and visualize ros topics, services, and action services to the
web.  Our previous efforts have focused on getting a framework
that allows many types of interfaces to be built.    These
tools could be used to create a web-based rviz or rqt etc.


If you’re interested in such things please feel free to join
the community effort!

Best regards,

Subject: [ros-users] Web introspection tools

At ROS Kong, some rQt on the web was demoed as well as a Gazebo
web visualizer.

I am no expert in web programing but what prevents us from
moving rQt and RViz to the web/javascript ? The obvious
advantages would be cross-platform support, optimizations
independent of the underlying libraries, easier code to debug,
no compilation. Plus, there are already great tools like
robotwebtools and rosbridge.

Here are a few reasons I was told that could prevent that move;
are those really valid ? Are there better reasons ?

- hard to access local files (html is not aware of local files)

- no customizable shaders in WebGL (is that the case ? do we
need those ?)

- slow JSON parsing libraries (aren't those optimized in recent
browsers ?)

- heavy bandwidth usage (how about binary JSON ?)
