ROS-Industrial Conference 2018

Over three days the program will cover: (1) ROS support from hardware OEMs, such as ABB, Denso, Ensenso, Pilz, Roboception, Universal Robots, and others (2) how robotics and IT are converging, in methods and business models: deployment and update workflows, cloud, etc (3) ROS software development measures and tools to guarantee its quality, such as static code analysis, and newly released packages from commercial organizations (4) applications such as aerospace, automotive, logistics (5) current EU ROS activities and how to get involved in them

ROS-I EU Spring ’19 Workshop

Fraunhofer IPA Nobelstraße 12, Stuttgart, Germany

With all the excitement and curiosity surrounding releases of ROS2 distros, we are pleased to announce the Spring edition of ROS-Industrial EU Tech Workshop, which will take place at Fraunhofer IPA. ROS 2 supports multiple DDS/RTPS implementations and various factors will influence in choosing the right vendor for your needs: logistical considerations like the license, or technical considerations like platform availability, or computation footprint.

ROS-Industrial EU Fall’19 Workshop

Fraunhofer IPA Nobelstraße 12, Stuttgart, Germany

We are glad to host two European MoveIt maintainers to give us an insight into the latest developements of MoveIt (incorporating motion planning, manipulation, 3D perception, kinematics, control & navigation), current and planned developements for ROS2 (MoveIt2), and a hands-on on ROS(1)-based 'bare-metal to product'. Next on day 2, Joanneum Research, ROS-Industrial Consortium member from Austria, will be demonstrating some insufficiencies of ROS(1) using a penetration testing tool ROSPenTo, developed by Joanneum. They would further walk the participants through setup and configuration of SROS2, set of tools to provide security infrastructure to ROS2. The last session of the workshop would be jointly held by INESC TEC and Fraunhofer IPA. In the join presentation, we will present the robotics skill oriented programming tools developed within the EU project ScalABLE4.0 enabling flexibility in the production line.

ROS (Robot Operating System) Training Fallenbrunnen (1), Germany

DHBW Ravensburg – Campus Friedrichshafen Fallenbrunnen 2, Friedrichshafen, Germany

Problem statement The use of ROS will increase in the future as the use of robots is increasing. The Open source approach and the community behind it made ROS widely accepted. The homepage „robotik UND PRODUKTION“ states, that ROS will be an industrial standard in the future. The acceptance of this open source framework continues to grow. That`s why the original founders and new developers are seeking to establish ROS as the industry standard. As far as the research institute ABI Research is saying, 55% of the commercial robots will own a ROS package in 2024. In recent years utilization of ROS is increasing.  Therefor a lot of today`s jobs will be affected by that. Studies show that 57% of the jobs in the OECD could be affected. That`s one reason why the employees need to be prepared and trained in ROS. Explanation of teaching approach Learning robotics by doing is far more effective than reading. This course will provide a good balance between theoretical and practical input. The course mainly concentrates on the basics of ROS. Since the ROS mainly works with Linux, it is essential to educate the participants with the basic knowledge of the Linux operating system. […]
