[ros-users] is a native ROS device possible?

[Ye Cheng]

I think Ethernet connection will be easy. Lots of MCUs have Ethernet
Interface (i.e. NXP1768, mbed has Ethernet library). However EtherCAT may
give you more benefits but needs extra Interface module or chip which I'm
looking for.

Cheers,
Simon
