micro-ROS-Agent
A ROS 2 node that bridges DDS networks with Micro-ROS nodes on microcontrollers, enabling communication between embedded systems and ROS 2.
What is micro-ROS-Agent?
micro-ROS Agent is a ROS 2 package that serves as a bridge between DDS networks and Micro-ROS nodes running on microcontrollers. It enables embedded systems to communicate with ROS 2 networks by managing message passing and node exposure, solving the challenge of integrating resource-constrained devices into larger robotic or IoT systems.
Robotics developers and embedded systems engineers working with microcontrollers who need to integrate MCU-based nodes into ROS 2 ecosystems for applications like drones, autonomous vehicles, or industrial IoT.
Developers choose micro-ROS Agent because it provides a standardized, efficient way to connect microcontroller-based systems to ROS 2, leveraging the Micro XRCE-DDS middleware for optimized communication and supporting multiple transport protocols without requiring heavy resources on the embedded side.
