Purpose

This package targets the following stakeholders:

  • Robotic Companies to have a unified, overview repository of their use-cases, enable across-teams re-use of ROS packages, and to define "standardized" development structure.
  • Robotic Consultants to simplify ROS packages' management and provide open and documented package-structure for their customers.
  • R&D Departments to propagate the packages across their development stages by keeping simple access and sharing policy.
  • Research Labs to organize their work across research groups and reduce onboarding time for new students.

The framework is the main entry-point for teams to:

#. organize their public and private ROS packages; #. describes scenarios; #. enable continuous integration across the use-cases; #. and provide scripts for easy use of ROS.

To achieve this, RosTeamWS defines:

#. an architecture of overlaid workspaces for sharing standard ROS packages; #. standardized package structure for straightforward collaboration; #. scripts for workspace and package management to keep their internal structure familiar to everyone in the team; #. often-used scripts for tests of small development-chunks.

The framework is initiated by Denis Stogl (2017-2020) for increasing collaboration at the Institute for Anthropomatics and Robotics (IAR) - Intelligent Process Control and Robotics (IPR) of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT).

From the 2021 the framework is maintained by Stogl Robotic Consulting.

DISCLAIMER

The work in the RosTeamWS-framework tries to follow, if applicable, ROS Enhancement Proposals (REPs). Still, collisions in the best-practices proposals may occur. The opinions and proposals stated here are merely related to the authors' experiences.
