UDP is nicer for an application like this because you don't really care about the advantages TCP provides. In a nutshell, TCP will guarantee delivery of packets as long as the socket is connected. UDP is just simply sending data without any guarantee or verification it will arrive intact.

This is great in the case of vision - you're likely going to be sending updates at a fairly fast rate, so if one packet gets lost you don't really want to care about retransmitting it.

Unfortunately, adb only supports bridging TCP and unix sockets as far as I've found



My team's implementation is similar to yours, except we're running the server on the phone side and the client on the RIO - but I can verify adb reverse works in the same way (binding to localhost).
