RapidSense API

RapidSense 2.x exposes a REST interface on port 11235 of the Realtime Controller alongside equivalent ASCII commands. Documented resources are /volumes (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE - cuboid perception volumes), /markers and /markers/{id} (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE - AprilTag 36h11 calibration markers), /sensors, /status (RapidSense version, state, per-sensor status and active 5xxx error codes), /heights (height-check filter query by centroid, width and length) and /changes, /changes/{id}, /changes/{id}/objects (change-detection filters, marked under development). No OpenAPI is published for it.
