  • The integration exposed the arm to ROS workflows while retaining a native graphical interface for setup and control.
  • The software path supported robot-state handling and command conversion between ROS tooling and the arm controller.
  • The software stack expanded the arm beyond direct GRBL control for research, education and custom automation projects.

ARCTOS Robotics develops an open-source, mostly 3D-printed six-axis robot-arm platform for learning, experimentation and DIY robotics. It supplies CAD files, build kits, firmware, documentation and Arctos Studio control and simulation software.
