Talk (virtual): Jorge Nicho - Senior Robotics Software Eng. at Blue River Technology - Introduction to ROS, the Robot Operating System!
Description: ROS is a cutting-edge, open-source framework for developing sophisticated robotics software applications. Developed in 2007, it has rapidly become the preferred platform for researchers, developers, and robotics enthusiasts worldwide. ROS is heavily built on C++ and also makes extensive use of Python, it allows for rapid prototyping and easy integration of various functionalities. By providing a versatile collection of libraries, tools, and conventions, ROS simplifies the complexities of robotics software development, enabling seamless communication between robot components like sensors and actuators. This fosters code reusability and collaboration, encouraging accelerated innovation in various fields, from industrial automation to autonomous mobile robots. Join us as we dive into the world of ROS and discover how this powerful system, enriched with Python code, is shaping the future of robotics!
