Robot Operating System (ROS) is a hardware-agnostic middleware framework that enables communication between various devices. It is an intuitive and modular communication framework that has gained widespread adoption among robot users in the last decade. It offers great benefits in terms of congregating organisations and engineers around the world with an open platform, common architecture, tools, as well as ready-to-use modules to create advanced robotics solutions efficiently and affordably.
ROS-Industrial is an open-sourced project that extends the advanced capabilities of ROS to industrial-relevant hardware and applications. As a Consortium, part of its mission is to accelerate the development and adoption of ROS by providing technical support and training to facilitate the continued
adoption in the industry.
The ROS2 Robotic Manipulation course strongly emphasizes the Learn-Through-Application approach. During the intensive 4-day training sessions, participants will receive the necessary tools to understand the theoretical concepts of robotic manipulation. They will have opportunities to apply these concepts in classroom exercises, reinforcing their learning.
About this Programme
At the end of the course, participants will have a practical working knowledge of applying various open source packages including Moveit2 and ROS2 control to design a manipulation system in simulation and demonstrate it with physical robot manipulators. The course offers the following:
