Robotics In Concert
Robotics in concert is an effort to make multimaster ros as practical as possible in order to provide practical solutions to multi-robot-device-tablet problems. A big part motivation of this is to lower the barrier to providing business opportunities for robotics.
From a technical perspective, it is a centralized multimaster system built around the ros communication layer. Nonetheless, it should be able to incorporate other robots/components into the design at the lower level. We believe that this approach is the most feasible approach to getting a practical and usable system up and running as quickly as possible.
Status
Indigo Release |
human interactions, robot resources, a scheduler and an orchestration agnostic service paradigm. |
Hydro Release |
early proof of concept concert framework but orchestration at the higher level is still a black box. |
Groovy Release |
multimaster gateway communications and tools. |
Usage
Indigo Release : refer to the hitchhiker's guide to an indigo concert.
