What it does

  • Records selected ROS 2 topics and streams them to ReductStore in near real-time.
  • Splits recordings by time, size, or topic groups to avoid oversized rosbag files.
  • Supports optional compression, filtering, and dynamic labels to tag and retrieve data segments.
  • Includes an optional rosbag_replayer node for playing back recorded bags at a chosen rate.
  • Distributed as a Snap package and suitable for Ubuntu Core based robotic systems.
  • Configuration options and pipeline behavior are documented on the ReductStore website.
