82. Available ROS2 Hardware - a podcast by Ricardo Tellez: CEO of The Construct & ROS Developer

from 2020-11-11T21:00

:: ::







Today we are going to talk about robots that exist running ROS2 as well as sensors that have ROS2 drivers available.







But before going into that, let me remind you about our ROS online academy. Yes, at the Construct we have created an online academy named The Robot Ignite Academy which contains a ROS learning path for beginners. The path is composed by:







* Linux for Robotics* Python for Robotics* ROS Basic Concepts* Understanding TF* URDF for modeling robots* ROS Control* Build your own robot and ROSify it… and become a ROS Developer!







Some other robotics theory courses included are:







* Mobile robots kinematics* Arm robot kinematics* Robot dynamics and control* Kalman Filters for robotics







Of course all our courses are based on practice with simulated robots! (theory+practice)







About the robots available







Turtlebot 3, by Robotis







This was the first commercial robot able to run ROS2 on it. Turtlebot3 was designed to run ROS1 by default, so if you buy it, it will come with ROS1 pre-installed. However, the guys from Robotis quickly prepared a tutorial about how to make your Turtlebot3 run ROS2. The full tutorial is here.















ROSbot, by Husarion.







Again, this robot default system is ROS1 but Husarion has released a full tutorial about how to change the default ROS version to ROS2. The full tutorial is here.















Rover Zero, by Rover Robotics







Same procedure as the previous 2. Default system is ROS1 but Rover provides a git repo with the code and instructions about how to install the ROS2 drivers for that robot. Check it out here.
