Detailed Description

DtConnector serves as the foundation for all connector classes that interface with external simulation protocols. Connectors are responsible for translating between internal VR-Engage messages and protocol-specific data formats. Each supported protocol (DIS, HLA, etc.) has its own connector implementation.
