ROS Comparison¶
Please note: We are comparing RSB against roscore not against ROS!
Functional Differences¶
Facts¶
- ROS provides topic-based pub-sub, RSB provides an m:n event bus.
- ROS provides a single-abstraction level, RSB provides hierarchies
Wishes¶
- We believe in the power of reflection and self-description, such that
- a generic content-based subscription model, e.g., with path-based access such as XPath becomes feasible
- messages can be generally understood by everyone even if parts are not accessible
- RSB shall provide better introspection features, both for programmtic access (e.g., for anomaly detection) but also for developers
ROS Integration¶
Potential strategies:
- (Generic) Bridge Component
- ROS Port (ROS as a transport, mapping to our concepts)
- RSB Integration in ROS
Ideas:
- Naming maintains features sets (which component understands what on which framework)
