NVIDIA's GPU-accelerated robotics simulator built on Omniverse, for developing, testing, training and deploying AI-powered robots in virtual environments.
RTAB-Map is a library and standalone application for real-time appearance-based mapping and localization, used to build and reuse 3D maps from sensor data.
A ROS 2 metapackage bundling image_transport plugins that compress image topics for transport between nodes.
A ros2_control system interface that runs ROS 2 controllers against the MuJoCo physics simulator, using MJCF or URDF-generated robot models.
ROS 2 wrapper for RTAB-Map, a graph-based SLAM library that builds 3D maps from RGB-D, stereo or lidar data with appearance-based loop closure. Exports occupancy grids, point clouds or OctoMaps.
Beluga is a C++17 library implementing Monte Carlo Localization algorithms, with a ROS wrapper that offers an AMCL-compatible node. It is built for robot localization.
Rosbag2 is the ROS 2 tool for recording and replaying timestamped messages from ROS 2 systems, offered as the ros2 bag command.
AM32 is open firmware for brushless motor speed controllers (ESCs) built on ARM STM32-family microcontrollers, aimed at multirotor flight and crawlers.
A set of Python libraries from Google DeepMind for physics-based simulation and reinforcement learning environments, built on the MuJoCo physics engine.
ROS 2 interface package holding message and service definitions mirrored from PX4 Autopilot's uORB topics, so ROS 2 nodes can exchange data with PX4 firmware.
ros2_control is a framework for ROS 2 that provides a generic control architecture for robots, along with the ros2_controllers package of ready-made controllers.
A C++ implementation of the OMG DDS standard and the RTPS protocol for publish-subscribe messaging over unreliable transports such as UDP. It is used as the default middleware for ROS 2.
Python SDK for the AgileX PiPER robot arm that receives its CAN data frames and turns them into usable data types, for reading joint state and controlling the arm.
XTDrone is a simulation platform for drones and other unmanned systems, built on PX4, ROS and Gazebo, so algorithms tested in it can be deployed to real vehicles.
A headless industrial PLC runtime that executes IEC 61131-3 programs on standard computing hardware, controlled by the OpenPLC Editor v4 via a REST API.
A Rust framework for building real-time robotics and AI applications as dataflow graphs of nodes, with Python, Rust, C and C++ APIs and a CLI to run and monitor them.
Stable-Baselines3 is a set of reliable PyTorch implementations of reinforcement learning algorithms, meant as baselines for research and for building new projects.
A set of ROS 2 packages that connect ROS with the Gazebo simulator, covering message bridging, simulation launch, images and point clouds.
A suite of ROS 1 and ROS 2 packages with a graphical interface for discovering, synchronizing, monitoring and managing nodes across multiple hosts. It replaces the FKIE Multimaster.
ROS packages for OAK cameras from Luxonis, giving ROS access to their depth and vision camera hardware. Documentation is maintained separately on the Luxonis docs site.
Pinocchio is an open-source C++ library, with Python bindings, for fast rigid multi-body dynamics and kinematics computations. It is mainly aimed at robotics and also used in other fields.
Crocoddyl is an optimal control library for robots under contact sequences, using differential dynamic programming solvers to compute optimal trajectories and feedback gains.
RKO-LIO is a LiDAR-inertial odometry system that estimates a sensor's motion from LiDAR and IMU data, without sensor-specific modelling. It runs as a Python package or a ROS package.
EdgeTX is open-source firmware for R/C radio transmitters, developed by the hobby community as the successor line to OpenTX.
