Using ROS in robotics
For the ones who don’t know ROS, we quote the definition from their own website: ROS (Robot Operating System) provides libraries and tools to help software developers create robot applications. It provides hardware abstraction, device drivers, libraries, visualizers, message-passing, package management, and more. ROS is licensed under an open source, BSD license.
We find that many of our customers are willing to use ROS in their projects, and for this reason we share today the work from our customer Mateusz Sadowski. Before diving into details, check out our Understanding ROS: How to Get Started with Robotics Operating System for Beginners.
Integrating RTK GNSS base and rover with ROS
Mateusz is a Robotics consultant and the author of Build Mobile Robots with ROS 2 LiveProject series. The project integrates the simpleRTK2B Heading – Basic Starter Kit together with LR radio modules into a ROS-based robotic platform capable of outdoor navigation with centimeter-level accuracy. The integration process and testing results have been documented in a series of blog posts covering:

Tutorials for ROS-based RTK applications
To help you get started with ROS and ROS 2, we have prepared step-by-step tutorials covering the first setup steps and showing how to visualize centimeter-accurate GPS positioning in ROS:
- How to integrate u-blox ZED-F9P GNSS/RTK receiver into ROS 2 (Jazzy)
- How to use ArduSimple RTK receivers and get GPS data in ROS
If you are developing a ground robot, check out Land, sea, or air robots: how to choose the platform for project with GPS too.
