Next steps
By completing this course, you’ve reached an intermediate level in robotic programming with ROS and ROS 2. You’ve learned how to work with different types of robot models, integrate them with computer vision systems, and choose the right type of 2D or 3D camera depending on the application. You’ve also gained practical skills in using OpenCV and PCL for perception tasks.
However, knowing how to simulate and program in ROS 2 is just one part of the journey. It's a completely different challenge to walk into your boss’s office and confidently say:
"I can implement this automation task on a real 6-axis robot, integrated with a real vision system."
To reach that level of expertise, you need to work with real hardware. That means using an actual robot and a real camera to understand essential tasks like camera calibration, dealing with noise, and handling all the issues that arise in real-world setups—things that no simulator can fully capture.
For this reason, we’re building a new advanced robotics course where we’ll apply everything you’ve learned here to a real robot.
Together, we’ll create a full Digital Twin in Isaac Sim of a bin picking application—one of the most complex tasks in industrial robotics. This will combine advanced manipulation planning with cutting-edge computer vision techniques like YOLO, all integrated within a ROS 2 framework.
Once the Digital Twin is ready, we’ll move to the real implementation: a 6-axis robot powered by FRWML and a 3D RealSense D455 camera.
The goal of this next course is simple:
To make you a true expert in ROS 2-based robotic programming.
The course is currently under development. If you're interested in joining and want to receive a special discount code (available only to those who purchased this course), email us at [email protected].
See you soon — and keep learning robotics with ROS!
