ROS 2
Updated on May 12, 2025
ROS 2 (Robot Operating System) provides libraries and tools to help software developers create robotic applications. ROS 2 is a major revision of ROS 1, which adds support for real-time code and embedded system hardware. As ROS 1 will no longer be supported past May 2025, it is highly recommended for new projects to start using ROS 2.
