Robot Operating System (ROS): current and future capabilities on embedded systems
summary
ROS is presented as a working stack from sensors to cloud: a DDS-backed ROS 2 pub/sub replaces ROS 1’s custom bus, tooling like rosbag record/replay captures high-rate logs for replay and testing, simulators Gazebo/Ignition plus SubT-style scenarios validate software before hardware, and motion libraries like TF and MoveIt handle kinematics. Embedded efforts are real: micro-ROS on STM32 ($45 reference board) is under active development and there’s a PX4 ↔ ROS bridge for drones; demos exist but micro-ROS is still maturing.
