Streaming-ACN (E1.31)

ACN is a suite of protocols (via Ethernet) that is the industry standard for lighting and control. ESTA is in the process of ratifying a subset of this protocol for "lightweight" devices which is called DMX-over-ACN. This would allow microcontroller devices to communicate with lighting equipment via ethernet, without all the overhead of the full ACN protocol. In an effort push early adoption ETC is providing the protocol information at no charge.
