Accelerating AI Modules for ROS and ROS 2 on NVIDIA Jetson Platform

Originally published at: https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/accelerating-ai-modules-for-ros-and-ros-2-on-jetson/

NVIDIA Jetson developer kits serve as a go-to platform for roboticists because of its ease of use, system support, and its comprehensive support for accelerating AI workloads. In this post, we showcase our support for open-source robotics frameworks including ROS and ROS 2 on NVIDIA Jetson developer kits. Figure 1. ROS and ROS 2 with…

Hello! I would love to know, what is this robot on the left of the lead image (the biggest one, with 4 wheels and LiDAR on high support)? Is it kinda unique Carter-like robot, or is there a possibility to acquire such robot / construct from specs?

Hello, yes we are building one of those Robot using Xavier NX. In fact we have built tons of Robotics-AI stuffs based on Jetson Nano and continue to post tutorial videos for enthu community. Take a look at our channel https://youtube.com/user/anbukumar73

I think it is a carter. You may follow the building requirements shown here: https://docs.nvidia.com/isaac/isaac/doc/tutorials/carter_hardware.html

This looks great. Feel free to put it on Jetson Projects - NVIDIA Developer Forums if you have not already.

Hello everyone, I was wondering if there is a chance to extend this project with custom gestures that I would like to add. I am not really familiar with ROS, but I would like to use ros2_trt_pose_hand to control robot in my master thesis. The idea is to use ML to teach detection of some extra gestures that will be used to control some arm movements.

Thanks in advance for help :)
