Re: [Dorset] ROS (Robot Operating System)
I do remember looking at it for a motion control application I was working on but decided to spin my own instead. I seem to recall it was a bit of a large hammer in relation to the small nut that was my problem. I was looking to run it on a BBB as that's our platform of choice.

Just wondering it because I might try it and need help. Peter M. What does it run on? I'm vaguely curious and have a spare Pi 1, so if I can run it on that I might give it a try sometime. I don't know anything about it though. Hamish The Documentation is very poor about how you would run it on a R-Pi. That's one of my first problems with it. Peter Ah, I see. For some reason I assumed it was real time, but it seems not. Also, it does say it runs on Linux, as it's more middleware than an OS itself. If you didn't find it already, http://wiki.ros.org/ROSberryPi looks potentially useful.
