Integrating ROS into EdgeX: Building a Unified Edge Computing System

Explore the integration of the Robot Operating System (ROS) into EdgeX Foundry in this informative conference talk. Delve into the potential of creating a unified edge system solution by combining ROS, a widely adopted framework for robot software, with EdgeX, a prominent edge computing project under the Linux Foundation. Learn about the proposed architecture, methods for supporting EdgeX with ROS device nodes, and the implementation of a basic machine learning framework using ROS libraries like OpenCV. Discover how this integration can be achieved over a lightweight preempt-rt Linux vessel and gain insights into the vision for edge computing clusters. Gain valuable knowledge about the convergence of robotics and edge computing technologies, and understand how this integration can revolutionize industrial automation and automotive systems.
