ROS-Industrial basically extends the advanced capabilities of ROS software to industrial robots working in the production process. ROS-Industrial consists of many software packages, which can be used for interfacing industrial robots. These packages are BSD (legacy) / Apache 2.0 (preferred) licensed program, which contain libraries, drivers, and tools for industrial hardware. The ROS-Industrial is now guided by the ROS-Industrial Consortium. The official website of ROS-I is http://rosindustrial.org/. The following diagram is the logo of ROS-I:
The main goals behind developing ROS-Industrial are given as follows:
Combine strengths of ROS to the existing industrial technologies for exploring advanced capabilities of ROS in the manufacturing process
Developing a reliable and robust software for industrial robots application.
Provide an easy way for doing research and development in industrial robotics
