The planner block buffer is planned assuming constant acceleration velocity profiles and are
continuously joined at block junctions as shown above. However, the planner only actively computes
the block entry speeds for an optimal velocity plan, but does not compute the block internal
velocity profiles. These velocity profiles are computed ad-hoc as they are executed by the
stepper algorithm and consists of only 7 possible types of profiles: cruise-only, cruise-
deceleration, acceleration-cruise, acceleration-only, deceleration-only, full-trapezoid, and
triangle(no cruise).

The step segment buffer computes the executing block velocity profile and tracks the critical
parameters for the stepper algorithm to accurately trace the profile. These critical parameters
are shown and defined in the above illustration.

/* Prepares step segment buffer. Continuously called from main program.
The segment buffer is an intermediary buffer interface between the execution of steps
by the stepper algorithm and the velocity profiles generated by the planner. The stepper
algorithm only executes steps within the segment buffer and is filled by the main program
when steps are "checked-out" from the first block in the planner buffer. This keeps the
step execution and planning optimization processes atomic and protected from each other.
The number of steps "checked-out" from the planner buffer and the number of segments in
the segment buffer is sized and computed such that no operation in the main program takes
longer than the time it takes the stepper algorithm to empty it before refilling it.
Currently, the segment buffer conservatively holds roughly up to 40-50 msec of steps.
NOTE: Computation units are in steps, millimeters, and minutes.

The velocity profile is always assumed to progress through the ramp sequence:
