Microsoft Brings Robot Operating System to Windows 10

Microsoft is another company humans can blame when the robopocalypse begins: the company has announced that the Robot Operating System (ROS), a flexible framework making it easier to build complex robots, is coming to Windows. The software will be demonstrated courtesy of a ROBOTIS Turtlebot 3 at ROSCon 2018 in Madrid, Spain.



With ROS for Windows, developers will be able to use the familiar Visual Studio toolset along with rich AI and cloud features. We’re looking forward to bringing the intelligent edge to robotics by bringing advanced features like hardware-accelerated Windows Machine Learning, computer vision, Azure Cognitive Services, Azure IoT cloud services, and other Microsoft technologies to home, education, commercial, and industrial robots.
