Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and system for providing real-time packet-level quality assurance of digital data that controls an electromechanical device transmitted through a network between a transmitting computer and at least one terminal computer. Specifically, all data packets transmitted between the transmitting computer and the at least one terminal computer are passively monitored, and those data packets containing digitized data that controls an electromechanical device of a pre-determined format are selectively recorded to a database. The selectively recorded data packets are then analyzed for determining whether a current set of digitized data that controls an electromechanical device transmitted between the transmitting computer and the at least one terminal computer during a current session would lead to a harmful or undesirable outcome by the electromechanical device being controlled. Finally, the analysis results are displayed in a real-time manner to provide real-time packet-level quality assurance of the digitized data that controls an electromechanical device.
