Hi everyone,
I’d like to ask about how well ROS 2 scales when managing a large fleet of mobile robots—specifically fleets with over 1,000 robots. I’ve used ROS 2 in many projects, but typically only with one or two robots.
When working with 1,000+ robots, each with around 10 hours of daily uptime, the chances of hitting edge cases or rare bugs naturally increase (as was the case with ROS 1).
I’m really interested in hearing about your experiences. What’s the size of your fleet? Are you using community-supported packages like ros2_control or others not maintained by the core OSRF team?
