ROS drivers seamless compatibility

Robots Farming

We provide ROS (Robot Operating System) drivers designed specifically for the ROS ecosystem, ensuring direct communication between hardware devices and robotic software modules.
These drivers translate sensor outputs into standardized ROS messages, enabling modular robotic architectures and streamlined integration.

Our ROS drivers support real-time data flow from inertial measurement units (IMU), attitude and heading reference systems (AHRS), and inertial navigation systems (INS). This means robotic systems can receive sensor data with minimal latency, essential for precise control, navigation, and feedback in dynamic environments.

Thanks to hardware abstraction, our drivers let developers incorporate diverse sensors without worrying about proprietary formats or low-level communication issues. They ensure that sensor information is accessible to all relevant ROS nodes, facilitating distributed robotic control and collaborative automation.

Those drivers are compatible with our entire range of AHRS and INS, including Ellipse, Ekinox Micro, Quanta, as well with our Pulse range of IMUs. This universal compatibility lets users deploy high-performance navigation and positioning across mobile robots, UAVs, industrial machines, and research platforms.
