-The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a set of software libraries and tools that help you build robot applications. It is organised in nodes, topic and services. Each node can subscribe or publish on a topic, allowing the node to communicate. The nodes can also proposed services that can be used by others nodes. For example, a node can have the addition service, if another node send a request to this service with two number, the node will answer with the sum of this numbers.
