Robots that can see,hear and think
ROS (Robotic Operating System) is built on Ubuntu. With powerful computer vision and AI libraries and a wide choice of supported sensors,it’s the most popular robotic development environment for everything from autonomous drones to self-driving cars.
A path to production
Commercialise your robotics projects with Ubuntu Core. Leverage a large community and standard,open source solutions for a faster route to market. Continuously improve your robots and drones wherever they are in the field,with a fail-safe remote upgrade system.
Built-in security
Ubuntu Core delivers application containment,restricted file accessibility and read-only files,to ensure the integrity of the software running on your robots. The result is guaranteed security,from the drivers to the apps that run on your robots.
New software revenues
Offer an appstore for your drones and robots and you can generate revenue from updates,add-on functionality,support services or complete reconfigurations.

Ubuntu loves robotics
The most widely adopted platform for ROS,Ubuntu ran on an estimated 80% of robots at the last DARPA Robotics Challenge. In fact,it offers a wealth of libraries and hardware options,from smart IoT and robotics to AI development.

ROS Kinetic installation instructions
These instructions will install the ROS Kinetic Kame distribution,which is available for Ubuntu Wily (15.10) and Ubuntu Xenial (16.04 LTS),among other platform options.
To install our previous release,ROS Jade Turtle,please see the Jade installation instructions.
The previous long-term support release,ROS Indigo Igloo,is available for Ubuntu Trusty (14.04 LTS) and many other platforms. Please refer to the Indigo installation instructions if you need to use this version due to robot or platform compatibility reasons.
The links below contain instructions for installing ROS Kinetic Kame on various operating systems. You may also wish to look at robot-specific installation options instead.
