Running ROS 2 on dual-brain boards just got a whole lot easier! At ROSCon Global 2026 in Toronto, Giovanni Bruno from the Arduino R&D team revealed Arduino_RouterBridge_ROS – an open-source library that is built to let your real-time microcontroller I/O publish and subscribe directly to ROS 2 topics on the MPU using an RPC transport built on MsgPackRPC. Check out our blog post for a technical breakdown, explore the GitHub repo, and browse our new documentation to get started with ROS 2 on UNO Q: blog.arduino.cc/2026/11/06/u…

Can the Arduino UNO Q actually handle the heavy lifting of ROS 2 and a LeRobot SO-ARM101? Watch Dmitry Maslov's @HardwareAi video as he pairs the dual-brain board with the robot arm to get teleoperation and manipulation with inverse kinematics working: youtu.be/AEVVRUtw2LI

The ROS 2 CLI just got a big upgrade thanks to Tony Najjar! You can now use fuzzy matching to find topics, launch files, and nodes. The feature will be out in the next Rolling Release and will be generally available in Lyric. discourse.openrobotics.org/t…

We’ve seen the questions about our updated Terms of Service. Let’s set the record straight: Arduino’s 20-year commitment to open source is absolute and unchanged. Your designs are yours, open-source licenses (e.g. Arduino IDE and libraries) remain open, schematics remain available. We’ve prepared a detailed update.
