What it does

  • Provides a plugin-based architecture so users can build custom tools to inspect and debug robotics applications.
  • Uses KDAB's KDDockWidgets for a customizable docking layout that users can arrange and save.
  • Connects to the ROS 2 ecosystem through the QML6 ROS2 Plugin.
  • Ships default plugins for actions, services, topics, parameters, images, TF frames, joint trajectories, MoveIt and teleoperation.
  • Lets users save, load and recently reopen workspace layout configurations.
