OpenCR
Open-source control module hardware and software for ROS-based robotics, designed for embedded systems.
What is OpenCR?
OpenCR is an open-source control module designed for the Robot Operating System (ROS). It provides both hardware and software that allow developers to run ROS on embedded systems, acting as the central controller for robots. It solves the problem of integrating ROS with low-level hardware by offering a dedicated, compatible board that simplifies robot development.
Robotics developers, researchers, and educators working with ROS who need an embedded control solution for building autonomous robots, particularly those using platforms like TurtleBot3 or Dynamixel servos.
Developers choose OpenCR because it offers a fully open-source, ROS-native embedded control platform with strong community support and seamless integration with popular robotics hardware like Dynamixel servos and the TurtleBot3.
