I can see here and there people like @aurelien, @Steve, @damien, @Theo and @sonel interested in ROS, perhaps could we share ideas and feelings here?
The Poppy project has good tools for managing motors, robot configuration, simulation, graphical programming etc. I was wondering how to share packages like on Nao platform, but packages that could be reusable on different robots. I guess computer vision or voice recognition are pretty generic algorythms. Others, like moving robot parts, are specific to a robotic platform but could be shared between their developers. I’ve no idea which framework could support this, is there is other choices than Pypot, ROS or Darwin OP Framework, if it’s easier to share primitives on Pypot than nodes in ROS, but I’m sure we need to create a kind of package manager like “pip” or “apt”! (and perhaps for each framework to follow the needs of each developer)
