Learn Open-RMF in 3 days with this training
💭 THE PROBLEM: As the number of robots grows, it is challenging to coordinate & manage them in shared spaces
💡 THE SOLUTION: Use Open-RMF: An open-source fleet management system
👨💻 THE PLAN: Learn how to build robot fleet systems and integrate Open-RMF for robot fleet management from the ground up with our hands-on training. Our curriculum covers a wide range of topics, including:
- Vital ROS2 Humble knowledge
- Generates RMF-enabled Gazebo simulations
- ROS2 navigation
- Setting up a basic RMF system for multiple robot fleets
- Basic RMF task settings: go to a location, pick & deliver objects, and charge when the battery is low.
- Create custom robot fleet adapters.
- Use RMF API to define advanced tasks and behaviors.
- Docking the robots in RMF for battery charging
- Set up cleaning procedures in the RMF
- Integrate human-operated stations with RMF
- Integrate doors and lifts in RMF
- Integrate robotic arms and other processing workstations in RMF.
You will have the opportunity to work with real robots in our state-of-the-art lab, and get hands-on experience with Open-RMF.
Expert instruction from industry professionals
Hands-on experience with real robots
Exercises with simulated robots, working along with the instructors
Practice in an actual robot fleet application scenario – Starbots Coffee
Who is this training for?
Team leads who want to build scalable robotics products, faster
Engineers who want to build a multi-robot system
People who want to be ready for new robotics technologies
100% PRACTICAL
Learn by doing on real robots
Apply your learning to a real multi-robot scenario: Startbots Coffee.
Starbots Coffee is a smart cafeteria running with multiple robots. During this training, you can connect to it remotely to control a fleet of robots with RMF. The practice scenarios you will experience are the following:
Robotic arm pick & place coffee cups
Robot baristas work together to delivery coffee
Open & close doors in RMF
Starbots Coffee application website
