<description brief="ROS Python client library">
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
rospy is a pure Python client library for ROS. The rospy client
|
|
API enables Python programmers to quickly interface with
|
|
ROS <a href="http://ros.org/wiki/Topics">Topics</a>, <a href="http://ros.org/wiki/Services">Services</a>,
|
|
and <a href="http://ros.org/wiki/Parameters">Parameters</a>. The
|
|
design of rospy favors implementation speed (i.e. developer time)
|
|
over runtime performance so that algorithms can be quickly
|
|
prototyped and tested within ROS. It is also ideal for
|
|
non-critical-path code, such as configuration and initialization
|
|
code. Many of the ROS tools are written in rospy to take advantage
|
|
of the type introspection capabilities.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
rospy also contains a
|
|
ROS <a href="http://ros.org/wiki/Master">Master</a>, which is the
|
|
default Master for ROS. Many of the ROS tools, such
|
|
as <a href="http://ros.org/wiki/rostopic">rostopic</a>
|
|
and <a href="http://ros.org/wiki/rosservice">rosservice</a>, are
|
|
built on top of rospy
