+All digital inputs on the robot control box can be accessed via the ROS topic `/gpio_controller/gpio_inputs`, which publishes the current state of all the 16 digital input ports *(True: port high, false: port low)*.

+The digital output ports on the control box can be set by publishing to the topic `/gpio_controller/gpio_outputs`. For example:
