ROS Noetic Development Branch

This is a development branch that we are using to port stretch_ros to ROS Noetic, Python 3, and Ubuntu 20.04. We plan to begin shipping this version preinstalled on Stretch RE1 robots at the end of the summer of 2021. It is in a usable state, but has known limitations that we've listed below. It is also unstable, since we are actively conducting development in this branch. Since we have performed limited testing, you may encounter unexpected behaviors. Also, installation requires Ubuntu 20.04 on a second partition of your robot's hard drive.

We are beginning to use this port internally at Hello Robot to test it, improve it, and add new capabilities. We also anticipate that some customers will begin working with this development branch. If you wish to try it, please see the installation guide. Both this branch and the installation guide are under active development. Please proceed with caution.

Please file issues here and ask general questions on the forum.

Known Issues

  • The deep perception demos won't work with a default installation, since they require OpenCV compiled with OpenVINO.
  • There is no support for the Respeaker Microphone Array.
