Drake ROS

drake-ros continuous integration

Getting Started

See drake_ros_examples for an example of getting started with both Drake and ROS 2 using colcon.

If you are using Bazel to build , please see ros2_example_bazel_installed.

About

The intended function of this repository is to provide the following ROS 2 capability:

  • API for integration between Drake and ROS 2 components. See the drake_ros package.
  • Examples using this API in the drake_ros_examples package.
  • Bazel Starlark macros and tooling to enable ingesting (already built) ROS 2 workspaces from either installed locations or tarballs in bazel_ros2_rules.
  • Examples for using these APIs and Bazel macros in ros2_example_bazel_installed.

Supported Configurations:

  • Ubuntu 22.04 + ROS 2 Humble (Recommended)
  • Ubuntu 20.04 + ROS 2 Rolling
  • Mac (only via Docker)
  • Architecture: x86_64 (amd64), arm64 (only via Docker)
  • Bazel >= 5.0

Docker Support

For users preferring Docker, we offer support for Ubuntu and Macs via Docker. You can build and interact with visualization (rviz2) directly on the Docker platform, which is particularly useful for Mac users, including those with Apple Silicon architecture. Please refer to our detailed Docker instructions in the Docker README.

Usable! But No Stability Commitment

This code is prioritized for use within the TRI Dexterous Manipulation Group. We do not presently adhere to any stability commitment (e.g., deprecations, backports, etc.), so please use this code at your own discretion. (It's still great code, of course!)

Please note that this should be considered second-party to Drake; more specifically:

  • Only a small subset of Drake developers are directly involved in this project at present.
  • This does not go through the same level of review as Drake's code review.
  • This project does not yet align with Drake's release cycles or Drake's supported configurations.
