Robot Operating System (ROS)

The Robot Operating System (ROS) is an open-source framework designed to help developers create robotic applications. It provides essential tools and libraries to enable robots to perform various tasks, such as navigation, perception, and communication. ROS facilitates the sharing of code and resources within the robotics community, allowing for collaboration and innovation. By standardizing the software development process, it makes it easier for researchers and engineers to build and program robots, leading to advancements in fields like automation, artificial intelligence, and robotics. Essentially, ROS acts as a toolkit for robot developers.
