Key Features
- Uses the two programming languages officially supported in ROS2 (C++, mainly, and Python)
- Approaches ROS2 from three different but complementary dimensions: the Community, Computation Graph, and the Workspace
- Includes a complete simulated robot, development and testing strategies, Behavior Trees, and Nav2 description, setup, and use
- A GitHub repository with code to assist readers
It will appeal to motivated engineering students, engineers, and professionals working with robot programming.
