Real-Time OS for Robotics Rtos with Ros2 Integration: Building Low-Latency Robot Control Systems with FreeRTOS and ROS2

By Corwin Halesworth and Isandro Myles

⏱️ Real-Time OS for Robotics RTOS with ROS2 Integration

Building Low-Latency Robot Control Systems with FreeRTOS and ROS2

Real-time responsiveness isn't just a performance goal in robotics-it's a necessity. Real-Time OS for Robotics is your step-by-step guide to building ultra-reliable, deterministic robot control systems using FreeRTOS and ROS2.

This book bridges the gap between real-time embedded systems and high-level robot intelligence. Whether you're developing autonomous vehicles, industrial arms, or swarm robots, you'll learn how to integrate real-time task scheduling with ROS2 communication to achieve predictable, mission-critical performance.

Inside, you'll master:

Setting up FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex-M and other embedded microcontrollers

Interfacing FreeRTOS tasks with ROS2 nodes via micro-ROS

Designing low-latency sensor and actuator pipelines

Managing RTOS priorities, interrupts, and preemption for optimal control

Implementing deterministic behavior for robot motion, sensing, and feedback loops

Synchronizing time across distributed systems using ROS2 and RTOS clocks

Debugging, profiling, and optimizing real-time performance on hardware-in-the-loop setups

From edge devices to full robotic stacks, this book teaches you how to design robots that respond instantly, consistently, and reliably-every time.
