Hi Jeroen, <br><br>it definitely would be a much better solution to have ROS running natively on the brick.  I don&#39;t know if it has a full enough featured build environment to run there.  However there is a project for cross compiling ROS onto embedded platforms hopefully some of their tools would be helpful if you wanted to try.  See <a href="http://www.ros.org/wiki/eros">http://www.ros.org/wiki/eros</a> <br>

Hi,<br><br>I was wondering if there are any plans (cross-compiler?) such that ROS can run on the NXT bricks ?<br><br>Currently RCX bricks are used for a course Embedded Motion Control using brickOS. <br>We would like to switch to the NXT bricks. Furthermore we want to set up the course such that students can get familiar with ROS.<br>




<br>It would be great if the software can run on the brick itself so that we do not need an USB-cable. Bluetooth is not an option because of the high latency.<br><br>Thanks Jeroen<br>
