Description
Currently, we only support convert functions to go between custom and ROS message types, which are more efficient for intra-process communication. It would be more efficient (less copy operations) for inter process communication to support serialization and deserialization functions.
I've put this issue on the H-turtle board for consideration.

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing the existing convert-function support for custom and ROS message types, then clarify the API and scope for serialization and deserialization in inter-process communication. Done means both functions are supported alongside the current conversion functions.
