In this workshop, you will learn the basics of robot programming with Python and ROS (Robot Operating System). Together, you will create your first programs, work with sensor data and test your own applications directly on the robot. The workshop focuses on hands-on experimentation and an introduction to the communication mechanisms of ROS. You will also learn how to use the official ROS documentation for independent development.

The workshop is aimed at anyone who would like to gain first practical experience in robot programming and learn the basic communication mechanisms of ROS.

Participation is limited to ten people.

Course Content:

  • Introduction to robot programming with Python and ROS
  • Creating publisher and subscriber nodes and running them directly on the robot
  • Communication via ROS topics
  • Working with sensor data and message types
  • Processing LiDAR data for motion control
  • Adapting and extending Python scripts
  • Introduction to the ROS documentation
  • Practical exercises directly on the robot

Requirements:

  • Basic experience with the Linux terminal is helpful
  • First experience with Python is an advantage

Materials: 

  • Own pc/ laptop

The course will be conducted by:

Robert Peter
