Hi yal! Its Your Friendly Neighborhood Navigator here!

I’m working with folks to renew the Nav2 Working Group as the Nav2 Community Meeting in early 2025 by popular demand. I’d also like to work out a new format to increase community engagement.

As part of this, I would like to get some feedback about participation timezones in order to best schedule the meetings to work well for the majority of folks (or rotating meeting times). If you are interested in these meetings, please fill in the poll delow:

Timezones of community members

  • Americas
  • Europe
  • Asia
0 voters

Additionally, I’d love to get feedback from Nav2 users about what structure of meetings would be the most useful to you – please comment below!

Some ideas:

  • Nav2 project updates
  • Talks about relevant Nav2 or adjacent technologies and researchers
  • Time for new contributors or users to ask questions and get involved
  • Technical working sessions on design, implementation, and so forth for feature development
  • Other (please comment below)

Happy Navigating,

Steve Macenski

Other: Detail

I would be very interested in the community maintaining a list of known robots using Nav2 on the navigation2 git repo: (or perhaps as a “Show And Tell” template for the Discussion tab:

  • User, Robot/Platform, Focus {learning, characterizing, optimization, custom planner, issues, docking, …}, Repo

I don’t know how long the git navigation2 Discussions tab has been open, it is surprising not more discussion topics have arisen there. It might be easier to search and follow than the general robotics.stackexchange. (Have been amazed to see smac responding on robotics.stackexchange - thank you smac.)
