Revision history [back]

EROS is a project devoted to enabling easy cross compiling of ROS projects for non-X86 architectures. It assumes that you are running a full Linux distro on your ARM.

rosserial on the other hand allows you to communicate using ros on platforms that do not have a full linux stack. It is meant to send messages over serial to a computer. Our primary platform for rosserial is Arduino which runs on an 8-bit microcontroller.

If you are using a Gumstix Overo or similar platform, you want to use EROS.
