Training Overview

With ROS2 quickly becoming the standard for robotics, more systems need to cooperate to deliver robotic solutions.

This intensive online training offers a practical ROS2 intro to using ROS2 to manage multi-robot systems.

What you’ll learn

  • How to do robot navigation in ROS2 using Nav2
  • How to build a multi-robot navigation system
  • How to manage fleets of robots in a common environment using the RMF open source framework

How you’ll learn

  • You will learn through ROS expert-led explanations
  • You will complete exercises with simulated robots, along with the instructors.
  • You will make a full project with the real robotic cafeteria.

Who is this training for?

  • For new ROS users
  • For ROS1 users who want to learn ROS2
  • Engineers or CTOs who want to build scalable robotics products, faster

Real Robots Used

We have created a real cafeteria for you to learn by programming serving robots.

Introducing Rick and Morty, the two robots we will be using in the summer school to learn how to use Open-RMF to control a fleet of robots.

This summer school is FULLY BOOKED. Thanks to all who enrolled, we look forward to learning Open-RMF and ROS2 with all the students this summer!

Don’t worry if you’re late, we’ll repeat this training Online in September, stay tuned!
