ROS 2 Hardware Acceleration Architecture and Conventions - REP-2008, version 2
Architectural pillars and conventions required to introduce hardware acceleration in ROS 2 in a scalable and technology-agnostic manner.
Hardware Acceleration
Hardware acceleration combines the flexibility of general-purpose processors, such as CPUs, with the efficiency of fully customized hardware, such as GPUs and ASICs, increasing efficiency by orders of magnitude when any application is implemented higher up the hierarchy of digital computing systems.
Hardware Acceleration in Robotics #5
Hardware acceleration in robotics news. Global robot software market to reach 7527 million $ in 2025, NVIDIA medical-grade chip with hardware acceleration.
Hardware Acceleration in Robotics #4
Hardware acceleration in robotics news. Updates about Single-Chip Processors, NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, iRobot Create 3 with ROS 2.
Hardware Acceleration in Robotics #3
Hardware acceleration in robotics news. Updates about hardware-accelerated ROS 2 Pipelines, Optimizers in SS-SAM and an interview with Rob Telson about a chip that mimicks the human brain.
Hardware accelerated ROS 2 pipelines and towards the Robotic Processing Unit (RPU)
We show how FPGAs compare to GPUs for ROS 2 graphs and propose the Robotic Processing Units (RPU), robot-specific processors that map ROS computational graphs efficiently to CPUs, FPGAs and GPUs to obtain best peformance.
Hardware Acceleration in Robotics #2
Hardware acceleration in robotics news about the NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU, updates to CUDA-X Libraries and NVIDIA Isaac ROS GEMs for robot's perception, localization, and mapping.
Hardware Acceleration in Robotics #1
News on ROS 2 can be used for automotive applications that implement Apex.OS, Intel announces world’s fastest FPGAs with in-package HBM, how to save project costs and improve quality with digital twins and the Nvidia GTC 2022 conference
ROS 2 Simplifies Hardware Acceleration for Robots
The process of creating optimized, hardware specific, compute architectures can be time consuming and complex. The ROS 2 Hardware Acceleration Working Group (HAWG) is working to simplify hardware acceleration engineering tasks by creating acceleration kernels based on open standards.
