ROS News for the Week of July 24th, 2023
ROSCon and PX4 Dev Summit are happening back to back this year! We are pleased to offer discounted tickets to those who register for both! The earlybird ROSCon ticket sale ends September 3rd, so please register soon!
ROS By-The-Bay is next Thursday! We’re still accepting
lightning talks !
Kappe, is a new MCAP migration and cutting tool that you need in your toolbox! It does a lot more than just conversion and cutting, and is worth checking out.
Is your simulation as slow as molasses in January? Check out this tooling to generate performance time charts for Gazebo and ROS 2.
