NASA Frees Their Robotics Software
From a JPL press release:
It’s a field day for robotics hackers everywhere, as NASA releases the first installment of their CLARAty reusable robotic software framework to the public.
CLARAty development was primarily funded by the Mars Technology Program and it serves as the integration environment for the program’s rover technology developments.
With this first release, a total of 44 CLARAty modules (~100K lines of code ) are now available under the JPL Open Source License. According to the JPL press release, these modules contain everything from math infrastructure to device drivers for common motors and cameras, and computer vision, image, and 3D processing.
So head over to the downloads page, and start building the next Little Rover That Could.
