FAQPage Schema

How do I migrate a ROS1 package to ROS2 Humble?▼

ROS1 to ROS2 migration involves mapping legacy APIs, build tools, and system architecture to ROS2 equivalents. This Skill provides detailed reference mappings to help adapt ROS1 patterns and successfully port packages to ROS2 Humble.

What is the difference between ROS1 and ROS2 system architecture?▼

The difference between ROS1 and ROS2 system architecture involves changes in APIs, build tools, and communication patterns. ROS2 introduces updated design patterns and best practices that replace legacy ROS1 concepts to improve system robustness and real-time performance.

Do I need to know ROS1 and ROS2 to port legacy robotics code?▼

Yes, you need knowledge of both ROS1 and ROS2 to port legacy robotics code. Understanding both frameworks is required to accurately map legacy ROS1 concepts, APIs, and build tools to the target ROS2 environment during the integration process.

When do I need a ROS1 reference for a ROS2 project?▼

You need a ROS1 reference for a ROS2 project when integrating or porting external ROS1 code into your current environment. It helps you understand legacy ROS1 best practices, design patterns, and common pitfalls to adapt them correctly into ROS2.

What are common pitfalls when porting ROS1 APIs to ROS2?▼

Common pitfalls when porting ROS1 APIs to ROS2 stem from mismatched system architectures and outdated design patterns. Referencing a detailed mapping of legacy ROS1 concepts helps identify these pitfalls and adapt the code to ROS2 best practices effectively.
