ROS News for June 26th, 2023
Melodic is now End of Life if you’re not thinking of switching to ROS 2 you need to be thinking about it. YOU HAVE TWO MORE YEARS LEFT OF ROS 1 SUPPORT.
Flappy Bird in Gazebo! Flappy Bird in Gazebo! Flappy Bird in Gazebo!. I feel like we should have a flappy bird controller competition.
Halo from Munich! If the news looks light this week it is because I spent the week running a ROS meetup in Munich and attending Automatica for the Intrinsic launch. I met at least a dozen new companies using ROS, and checked up on some of our long time users.
I’ll try to get a longer update out when I get back. I imagine there will also be a video explaining the Intrinsic booth in the near future.
I’ll be in Bordeaux, France, next week for ROS Industrial EU and ROSCon France. If you are attending please come introduce yourself! Due to my travel schedule there probably won’t be a news update next week.
