When using ROS 2 in its default configuration, you may encounter challenges in the following scenarios:
Lossy Wi-Fi networks
Network congestion
Large data transmission (e.g., video streams, LIDAR data)
Discovery issues in large-scale deployments or environments without multicast support
We’re excited to announce ROS 2 Easy Mode, a new feature designed to optimize ROS 2 and Fast DDS for these situations with just a single configuration setting. This enhancement significantly improves performance and simplifies the out-of-the-box experience for users.
Want to try it right away? Download our ROS 2 distribution, Vulcanexus, and explore the benefits of Easy Mode today. This feature will also be included in the official ROS 2 distribution soon.
