Hi guys,

We just published another ROS 2 tutorial, this time concentrating on visual object recognition. Like the previous tutorials, they contain both practical examples and a rational portion of theory on robot vision.

In this chapter, you can learn how to:  
👉 configure a vision system  
👉 automatically recognize objects and determine their position in relation to the camera  
👉 make the robot follow the objects.

You can deploy all examples on one of three available ROSbots, either on the physical robot or in the simulation. Next week, we will publish another tutorial on running ROS 2 on multiple machines.

Hope you like it, let us know if you have any comments or questions!
