Software for ROS - Robot Operating System
Modern and scalable ROS software: We integrate your hardware with powerful drivers and develop customized ROS applications for the requirements of today and tomorrow.
Driver development: Your components in the ROS world
- Our drivers ensure seamless integration of your hardware components into the ROS ecosystem.
- Sensor integration: We develop drivers that ensure smooth communication between your sensors (e.g. cameras, LIDAR, IMUs) and ROS.
- Robot integration: Our drivers enable you to control your robot with ROS.
Application development with ROS
- Development of complete ROS applications: Based on a solid driver foundation, we develop customized ROS applications that meet your specific requirements.
How do we achieve this?
Individualized ROS nodes
URDF (Unified Robot Description Format)
RVIZ
We use RVIZ to visualize your robot environment and data. This powerful tool clearly displays complex robot movements, sensor data and environment maps and helps with analysis.
Gazebo
We use Gazebo for the realistic simulation of robot applications. This simulation environment enables us to test and optimize your robots in virtual scenarios before they are used in the real world. This saves you time and money during development and implementation.
MoveIt!
MoveIt! is an advanced software framework for motion planning and control of robots. We integrate MoveIt! into your applications to efficiently plan and execute complex motion sequences and manipulations.
Mitsubishi ROS 2 drivers
The Mitsubishi ROS 2 driver was developed in collaboration with Software-byTS at our robotics training cell.
You can download our ROS driver for the two Mitsubishi MELFA robot models RV-2FRB-D and RV-4FRL-D from the linked GitHub repository. This driver enables you to test your robot in the ROS framework together with MoveIt and to get to know the first steps for controlling and operating the robot.
Our driver is freely available as an open source product and we hope to promote a lively exchange of knowledge. If you have any questions about integration or are interested in ROS training, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We have years of experience and expertise in the field of robotics and can look back on over 20 years of partnership with Mitsubishi Electric.
