Object Detection with ROS2 | ROS2 Developers Open Class #140

A very important feature for robots is to be able to detect objects in the environment they are in. In this open class, we will see a very simple way of doing this type of perception using ROS2.

About ROS DEVELOPERS LIVE CLASS
Where you will learn and practice how to develop ROS-based robots with a ROS expert in a real-time event every single week.

FREE LIVE CLASS Every Tuesday @ 6 PM CET / CEST. This is a weekly LIVE class on how to develop ROS-based robots. You'll learn ROS and practice with a ROS developer in real-time without any previous setup on your side. And you'll receive a rosject that contains the robot simulations, and the projects’ code.

You will learn ROS, ROS2, robotics theory, math for robotics, Robot and Artificial Intelligence ... and much more with us in this weekly LIVE event.
