Robotics & ROS Skills

Applies production robotics design principles including fail-safe defaults, rate separation, composability, and graceful degradation.

Guides ROS 1 development with catkin, rospy, roscpp, nodelets, TF, actionlib, launch files, and migration considerations.

Guides ROS 2 development with rclpy, rclcpp, DDS, QoS, lifecycle nodes, components, and Python launch.

Applies behavior trees, state machines, hardware abstraction, safety patterns, sensor fusion, and sim-to-real architecture.

Designs perception pipelines for cameras, LiDAR, depth, calibration, point clouds, detection, tracking, and sensor fusion.

Creates robotics test strategies using unit tests, launch testing, mock hardware, simulation, golden files, and CI.

Builds reproducible ROS 2 container workflows with multi-stage images, Compose, DDS networking, GPU passthrough, and devcontainers.

Connects ROS 2 systems to web interfaces using rosbridge, API bridges, WebSockets, streaming, and security controls.

Designs deterministic robot startup and shutdown with systemd, launch composition, udev, watchdogs, logs, and recovery.

Hardens robotic systems with SROS2, DDS encryption, segmentation, secret handling, secure boot, and safety isolation.
