ADLINK Technology Joins ROS 2 Technical Steering Committee
ADLINK Technology is now part of the ROS 2 Technical Steering Committee (TSC) organized by Open Robotics.
ADLINK Technology is now part of the ROS 2 Technical Steering Committee (TSC) organized by Open Robotics. The Robot Operating System (ROS) is the world's leading open source resource for roboticists. The ROS 2 TSC sets the technical direction for open robotics and is made of organizations actively contributing to the development and success of ROS 2.
ADLINK's contributions to the ROS 2 TSC are focused on:
ROS Middleware (RMW) improvements for flexibility & performance via OMG Data Distribution Service (DDS) capabilities & best practices.
ROS 2 contributions for open source Eclipse Cyclone DDS, an open source Eclipse IoT project that is suited for autonomous mobile robots (AMR), and open source Vortex OpenSplice for large, complex systems.
Working to establish an Edge AI Working Group with fellow TSC members and contributing deep expertise in edge AI for machine vision.
"We're excited by ADLINK's contributions and to have them join the ROS 2 TSC. Their contributions will help enable our vision of an open source robotics ecosystem," says Brian Gerkey, CEO of Open Robotics.
"ROS 2 is the future of robots, autonomous vehicles and industrial automation. It will be everywhere," says Joe Speed, ADLINK Technology Field CTO, ROS 2 TSC representative and OMG board member.

Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
