Fedora Robotics Special Interest Group

Mission

Bring packages of open and free software related to robotics and educational software for robotics into Fedora and make Fedora fit to power (mobile) robots.

Members

Communication

Next meeting: Not scheduled yet, watch the mailing list

Tasks

  • Package Player/Stage/Gazebo (makghosh, timn)
  • Package CARMEN (timn)
  • Package NBC/NXT (jspaleta)
  • Find more interesting packages and interested packagers
  • Create Fedora robotics spin with Player/Stage/Gazebo simulated demo

Packages

Interesting software proposed for packaging

Packages waiting for someone to take over

These packages have been postponed for now due to insufficient man power.

  • MARIE (makghosh), no upstream release for a long time, wiki page vandalized, had commits this year though (timn)
  • Simbad (makghosh)
  • Paparazzi, Open UAVs (timn)


Pending review requests

  • Stage - 2D multiple-robot simulator

Accepted packages

  • Player - Cross-platform robot device interface and server
  • rcssserver3d - RoboCup Soccer Simulation Server 3D
  • rcssbase - Robocup 2D Soccer Simulation Base Library
  • rcssmonitor - RoboCup 2D Soccer Simulator Monitor
  • rcssserver - Robocup 2D Soccer Simulation Server
  • rcsslogplayer - RoboCup Soccer Simulator LogPlayer
  • MRPT - The Mobile Robot Programming Toolkit.
  • libkni3 - C++ library für the Katana robot arm

Packages decided not to package for now

If you want to get involved you could start investigating the code and maybe revive the upstream project! The postponed packages could be packaged later but the have a lower priority as decided by the SIG. (Probably) Won't package:

  • RobotFlow (makghosh), upstream looks dead for several years, probably not a good idea (timn), +1, so it goes down the list and maybe moved out if there is no further upstream (makghosh)
