About us

ROS Vancouver is a users group for the Robot Operating System (ROS), "a flexible framework for writing robot software. It is a collection of tools, libraries, and conventions that aim to simplify the task of creating complex and robust robot behavior across a wide variety of robotic platforms." (ros.org) ROS Vancouver is open to anyone interested in using ROS to design and develop robots for real world applications. Our prime focus is on collaborative service robots that can safety interact with humans and want to share what we have learned in Vancouver.
