We're excited to share that Analog Devices will be attending ROSCon UK 2026, the UK's premier conference for Robot Operating System (ROS) developers, robotics researchers, and open source robotics enthusiasts. The event brings together members of the robotics community to learn, collaborate, and exchange ideas through technical talks, workshops, demonstrations, tutorials, and networking opportunities.

For ADI, ROSCon UK is a natural opportunity to engage with the robotics and open source communities that are helping shape the future of intelligent machines. Through our Robotics SDK, Edge AI technologies, sensing solutions, and broader developer ecosystem initiatives, we are committed to enabling developers to build more capable, connected, and autonomous robotic systems.

If you're attending, be sure to stop by and connect with the ADI team. Learn how we're supporting robotics developers with open source software, ROS 2 integrations, advanced sensing technologies, and tools designed to accelerate development from prototype to deployment.

See you at ROSCon UK!

Ship Robots W/O Hand-crafted Images

Laurentiu Popa | Embedded Software Engineer

This talk presents runtime configuration folders as a deployment primitive for ROS 2 robots. It explores how to replace hand-crafted SD images and shell scripts with a three-layer stack: Debian packages for hardware, Docker containers for ROS 2, and git-versioned config folders for application state, enabling reliable reconfiguration.

Closing the Gap Between cuVSLAM and Nav2

Tudor Alinei-Poiana | Embedded Software Engineer

This talk presents a concrete integration recipe for connecting NVIDIA Isaac ROS cuVSLAM to the Nav2 navigation stack. It explores how to bridge GPU-accelerated visual-inertial SLAM with Nav2's 2D planning expectations through four integration surfaces.
