Starting from that, there is no reason to not be able to install ROS on it and check your build. The tricky part is that they decide whether or not your use is "fair" or not. Without notifying them first a full switch of the ROS community is therefore risky. AFAIK if your build takes less than 30 minutes they are fine. So for vision_visp I am fine: https://travis-ci.org/laas/vision_visp/branches As for how to do it, it is exactly what you would do on your own machine. The .travis.yml call the .travis/before_install script which setup the apt repositories, get the key and run apt-get install. https://github.com/stack-of-tasks/redundant_manipulator_control/blob/master/.travis.yml https://github.com/stack-of-tasks/redundant_manipulator_control/blob/master/.travis/before_install Best, -- Thomas Moulard（ムラー　トマ） CNRS-AIST JRL (Joint Robotics Laboratory), UMI3218/CRT, Tsukuba, Japan http://thomas.moulard.net | Tel: +81 (0)80-9436-1985 | GPG Key Id: 516FC68F31496D58 Add me on LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/moulard
