Introduction

This repo houses specifications documents for the Buttplug Intimate Hardware Control Server Protocol (referred to hereafter as Buttplug).

Buttplug aims to simplify accessing and controlling different kinds of intimate hardware such as vibrators, strokers, and machines, as well as other devices like kegelcizers, electrostimulation systems, and whatever else seems like it could be intimate. The goal is to abstract line level (usb/bluetooth/serial/etc) protocol knowledge away from the developer, so they can concentrate on creating new and interesting interfaces, applications, games, and other software.

HTML rendered version of the Protocol Spec is at https://buttplug-spec.docs.buttplug.io/.

More information on the Buttplug project can be found at at https://buttplug.io.
