I am very happy to share that my talk about #PlanSys2 has been accepted to be presented at #ROSCon2025 in Singapore 🤓

It is my first time presenting this project at a live ROSCon. Thanks to the #PlanSys2 contributors. This is also yours!!

The second edition of my book will be released on the 4th of July.

The book, updated to rolling/kilted, includes two new chapters:

1) Deep ROS 2: Executors, execution model, callback groups and Real-Time.
2) Contributing to ROS 2 software (licenses, git, .)

I hope you like 🤓

I am on my way to Barcelona to participate in this MeetUp 🚄

@esteve.bsky.social is the only Spanish who participated in the creation of ROS2. It will be great to hear from him about the internals of this process.

I will talk about our projects at @IntellRobotLabs 🤓

It will be great!!

Today, we had an interesting discussion about my proposal for new Real-Time Executors at the #ROS2 Client Libraries Working Groups. It is not clear to add this functionality inside😕

Real-time is something critical that not all ROS users think about when developing their software
