If you are wondering what such an internship could entail, here is a brief description of what an intern did at ABB this summer. **Topic:** Mobile robotics, including navigation, localization and mapping, as well as system integration of an [ABB YuMi](https://new.abb.com/products/robotics/industrial-robots/yumi) robot and a [Clearpath Ridgeback](https://www.clearpathrobotics.com/ridgeback-indoor-robot-platform/) mobile platform. **Overview of work done:** * Software integration: * [move_base](http://wiki.ros.org/move_base) for interaction with the Ridgeback platform. * [ros_pkg_gen](https://github.com/tecnalia-advancedmanufacturing-robotics/ros_pkg_gen) for generating ROS nodes (ROS package developed by ROSIN partner Tecnalia). * [abb_librws](https://github.com/ros-industrial/abb_librws) for interaction with the YuMi robot (ROS package developed by ROSIN partner ABB). * Hardware integration: * Connecting different subsystems via WiFi and Ethernet to make sure they can communicate. **Purpose:** Investigate, and evaluate, the combination of ABB robot systems and open-source capabilities found in ROS-based systems. And here is an image of the mobile platform: ![image|596x500](upload://8UOilu13XyT5JckGAD5plRRbIcH.jpeg) --- [Visit Topic](https://discourse.ros.org/t/internships-at-rosin-project-partners-abb-tu-delft-fh-aachen-fraunhofer-ipa-tecnalia-itu-copenhagen/7173/2) or reply to this email to respond.
