ROS Developers Podcast

In this episode, Krzysztof will explain us about using cheap, fast, small and light weight time of flight sensors on drones in outdoor environments. We will discuss about distances that those sensors can reach, frequency of update, interference between sensors and how to combine rings of sensors. Krzysztof will explain how to get data from

In this episode I talk to Roberto Guzman who will tell us about how to speed up our robot building by using certified ROS components. He also talks about how easy he feels that is to transfer results from simulation to real robot, about the ROSCON, IROS and ROS-Industrial. Selected quote: “One thing that

In this episode Martin Pecka will talk about the Tensorflow ROS cpp package, a ROS package he created to simplify the use of Tensorflow within a ROS node and to provide a universal interface to ROS programs, independently on how Tensorflow was installed in the system. Selected quote: “The Tensorflow ROS cpp package works

In this episode I talk to Victor Mayoral, CTO of Erle/Acutronic about their Hardware ROS (or better known as H-ROS). We will talk about how they have implemented this hardware framework for building ROS based robots by combining hardware parts that natively work on ROS (no drivers required in the main computer). He will

In this episode, I talk to Dejan Pangercic, the CTO of APEX.AI a company that is creating the first fork of ROS 2 to create a new operating system for autonomous cars based on ROS: The Apex.OS. Dejan explains us why ROS2 is the way to go for autonomous cars, how are they modifying

In this episode, Ross explains how he uses ROS to teach foundations in robotics. He tells about how he synchronizes the teaching of ROS with the teaching of robotics subjects, as well as his use of simulations and the importance of debugging tools for ROS. He also explains why he doesn’t use the ROS

In this episode I talk to one of the mothers of ROS, the co-creator of the Turtlebot robot, and the CEO of one of the most important companies of the world that sells ROS based Warehouse robots (Fetch Robotics). Among other things, she will explain about their work to simplify the control of fleets of

In this episode we talk with Joel Esposito about his research on what is the current state of robotics degrees around the world. Based on a set of questionnaires, Joel obtained a clear view of what is the current situation of robotics degrees around the world and what are its drawbacks. He then proposes how

In this episode with talk withh Kyler Laird about how to apply ROS to agricultural machines. Kyler will explain his experiences creating autonomous tractors. He will also talk about the ROS Agriculture group created to spread ROS among farmers. Selected quote: The ROS Agriculture group is more oriented towards farmers than towards companies Kyler Laird
