Rclex: A Library for Robotics to meet Elixir
How do we install the magic of Elixir into robot systems? One of the solutions is "Rclex", that is a client library for ROS 2 platform. ROS (Robot Operating System) provides publish/subscribe based messaging mechanism between robot modules with the DDS (Data Distribution Service) stack. We suggest that the force of Erlang/Elixir can power up the scalability of ROS 2 communication. This talk will introduce how did we integrate ROS 2 and Elixir by using NIFs, and discuss the possibility of this library in the IoT field.
OBJECTIVE:
The audience will learn about a new library that bridges robotics and Elixir, and will be able to practice a new development style of robot systems.
AUDIENCE:
- An alchemist who wants to construct robot systems.
- A robotics engineer who thinks the robot development should be functional.
