[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [ROS-Industrial] Fully Open Source (Industrial) Robotics Controller

[Alexander Rössler]

RT support of the middleware is definitely helpful, but I don't think it's a minimum requirement for such a controller. As pointed out, Machinekit or any other motion control layer needs to be RT capable, but the middleware itself could also operate in userland.

The RT support of the middleware, however, is necessary when we are talking about distributed motor control. Which is something @vmayoral is targeting for example.
