ROS 2 Connect
Connects ROS 2 services and topics, exposing them as Model Context Protocol tools and resources for seamless integration.
About
This software acts as a crucial bridge between the Robotics Operating System 2 (ROS 2) and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling seamless interaction between robotic systems and AI agents or other MCP-compatible applications. It translates arbitrary ROS 2 services into callable MCP tools and exposes ROS 2 topics as accessible MCP resources, simplifying the integration of complex robotic functionalities into intelligent workflows. Developers can leverage this tool to empower AI systems with direct control and perception capabilities over ROS 2-based robots, enhancing automation and intelligent decision-making.
