The Robotics Operating System (ROS) Singapore Meetup is back with new exciting content! Learn all about ROS in our last of the year meetup with these two amazing talks:
Talks:
1. Unity for development of AUV: An introduction, application and beyond
Drone testing for autonomous missions is inherently risky; as such, code validation in simulation is crucial in saving time, costs and increasing chances of success. In this session, Luc will share about how he and his team use Unity3D, a game engine which offers quality physics and graphics, to validate autonomous programs before they are deployed on actual AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle).
Speaker: Vu Tien Luc
Luc is the Executive Lead of Mecatron, the underwater robotics team from NTU, Singapore. He has experience with training reinforcement learning model in Unity and deploying it on an underwater drone in real life. He specialises in simulation (Unity, UE), drone software (ardupilot/px4) and is passionate about product development for AUV/UAV.
2. Memory-Safe-High-Performance Async ROS programming wiht rclrs: A preview
This talk will delve into how to use rclrs (the Rust client library for ROS 2) to leverage both safe memory practices and performance optimization techniques while managing asynchronous tasks in robotic applications.
Speaker: Michael Grey
Dr. Michael Grey is an Open Source Software Developer and a Robotics Researcher. He currently works as a Senior Software Engineer at Intrinsic, Singapore. He has contributed to the field of Robotics through his research publications. He is a proud volunteer of the 'Code in the Community program' in Singapore.
