Robotics engineering services
Your robot.
Our engineering expertise.
Build, connect and refine your robotic system with the team behind Vulcanexus and Fast DDS. From ROS 2 architecture and platform integration to navigation, human–robot interaction and AI.
Architecture around your requirements.
Hardware and software working together.
Behavior tested on your platform.
Sensors & control
Human interaction
AI applications
Navigation
Open technology. Engineering tailored to your robot.
Vulcanexus remains an open-source ROS 2 distribution. Choose project-based engineering, a professional subscription, or both.
Robotics services
From individual components to a complete robotic system.
Start with a focused challenge or combine services around your project. Scope, deliverables and validation criteria are agreed before implementation.
- Architecture & performance
- Robot integration
- Navigation & simulation
- Embedded robotics
- Human–robot interaction
- AI for robotics
Typical deliverable
An architecture review, measured findings and a prioritised implementation plan.
Make the communication fit the robot.
Design or review your ROS 2 architecture around the data, network and computing resources of your system. Measure behavior under representative workloads and address the bottlenecks that matter.
- Data interfaces, QoS, discovery and deployment topology.
- Latency, throughput and resource-use analysis.
- Wi-Fi, large sensor data and multi-robot communication.
Typical deliverable
Integrated components, tested interfaces and a documented software baseline.
Bring the components into one working system.
Build on your existing robot or develop a tailored platform. Integrate sensors, actuators and computing with ROS 2 applications, and define the interfaces between the robot and surrounding systems.
- Sensor, actuator and application integration.
- Custom ROS 2 nodes, drivers and protocol adapters.
- Connections to workstations, gateways and remote systems.
Typical deliverable
A configured navigation workflow and reusable simulation and test scenarios.
Develop behavior. Test it in context.
Integrate navigation and simulation into your development workflow. Configure the robot model, sensors and navigation stack around your platform and evaluate behavior in representative scenarios.
- Nav2 integration, localisation and navigation configuration.
- Simulation with Gazebo, Webots or Isaac Sim, as appropriate.
- Repeatable scenarios and checks on the physical platform.
Typical deliverable
An embedded integration tailored to your board, toolchain and communication requirements.
Connect the smallest parts of the robot.
Bring microcontrollers and embedded controllers into your ROS 2 architecture. Scope the hardware, operating system and communication choices to the resources and interfaces available on your target.
- micro-ROS integration and target-platform adaptation.
- Transport, memory and build-system configuration.
- Embedded-to-application communication testing.
Typical deliverable
An integrated interaction pipeline, with behavior evaluated in your intended environment.
Help the robot understand its users.
Combine perception and speech into an interaction workflow built around your application. Use Vulcanexus HRI components as a foundation and integrate the behavior your robot needs.
- Face detection and person or pose tracking.
- Speech-to-text and text-to-speech integration.
- Application-specific interaction flows and evaluation.
Typical deliverable
A scoped AI integration with explicit capabilities and an evaluation plan.
Connect language to defined robot capabilities.
Design or review your ROS 2 architecture around the data, network and computing resources of your system. Measure behavior under representative workloads and address the bottlenecks that matter.
- Data interfaces, QoS, discovery and deployment topology.
- Latency, throughput and resource-use analysis.
- Wi-Fi, large sensor data and multi-robot communication.
