# About 

The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a set of software libraries and tools that help you build robot applications.

From drivers to state-of-the-art algorithms, and with powerful developer tools, ROS has what you need for your next robotics project.

And it's all open source.

Full project details on [ROS.org](https://ros.org/)
