ROS AMR interoperability packages
This repository hosts a collection of ROS packages to ease the integration of ROS based robots with different interoperability standards, with a focus on AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots).
Packages
The following packages are included in this repository:
Mass Robotics AMR Interop Sender for ROS1
The massrobotics_amr_sender package provides a ROS1 node written in Python that takes input from a ROS1 system and publishes it to a Mass Robotics Interop compliant Receiver.
Mapping of different data elements from the ROS1 system into Mass Robotics Interop messages can be customized through a YAML configuration file.
Related Initiatives
The topic of AMR interoperability is in a fluid state of evolution. For this reason, it is worth it to keep track of other standards, initiatives, libraries and efforts related to this topic.
The following is an incomplete and growing list of such related topics:
- Open-RMF (formerly RMF Core) is an open source framework based on ROS 2 to enable the interoperability of heterogeneous fleets of any type of robotics systems.
- Mass Robotics AMR Interoperability Standard aims to help organizations deploy AMRs from multiple vendors and have them coexist effectively.
- VDA 5050 AGV Communications Interface describes an interface for communication between driverless transport vehicles (AGV) and a master control system over MQTT using standardized JSON messages.
-
OPC Unified Architecture
(OPC UA) is a machine to machine communication protocol for industrial
automation developed by the OPC Foundation
- ros_opcua_communication ROS bindings for different open-source OPC-UA implementations
We expect to keep curating the set of relevant topics with the contribution of the community.
Development
Install pre-commit in your computer and then set it up by running pre-commit install at the root of the cloned project.

ROS AMR interoperability packages
This repository hosts a collection of ROS packages to ease the integration of ROS based robots with different interoperability standards, with a focus on AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots).
Packages
The following packages are included in this repository:
VDA5050 Connector for ROS2
The vda5050_connector package provides a set of ROS2 nodes for connecting a ROS2-based robot to a VDA5050 Master Control.
If you want to develop a VDA5050 adapter for your robots, please check out our VDA5050 Adapter Examples repository to get started.
Mass Robotics AMR Interop Sender for ROS2
The massrobotics_amr_sender_py package provides a ROS2 node written in Python that takes input from a ROS2 system and publishes it to a Mass Robotics Interop compliant Receiver.
Mapping of different data elements from the ROS2 system into Mass Robotics Interop messages can be customized through a YAML configuration file.

The following is an incomplete and growing list of such related topics:
- Isaac Mission Dispatch is NVIDIA’s open source cloud micro-services enabling fleet management software to submit missions to multiple robots and monitor the robot and mission states. The communication between Mission Dispatch and robots is designed per VDA5050 protocol and uses MQTT.
- Open-RMF (formerly RMF Core) is an open source framework based on ROS 2 to enable the interoperability of heterogeneous fleets of any type of robotics systems.
