01
Manufacturing
Mobile and workcell robotics
Coordinate navigation, manipulation and facility interfaces around safe production work.
Service / ROS2
ROS 2 systems engineered beyond the prototype.
Root Digit develops production robotics software around explicit timing, safety, configuration and field-support requirements—not a collection of disconnected ROS packages.
Operating application
Applied to concrete decisions.
The technology matters only when it improves a real operating path with defensible evidence.
02
Logistics
Warehouse autonomy
Integrate mission allocation, fleet traffic, charging and intervention workflows.
03
Aerial systems
Commercial inspection platforms
Connect positioning, payload control, perception and supervised mission behaviour.
04
Product engineering
Robot platform foundations
Create a reusable software baseline across hardware variants and product releases.
Capability system
The work required to move from intent to operation.
Capabilities are composed around the operating problem. Each can stand alone or form part of a governed programme.
01 / ROS2
ROS 2 architecture
Maintainable package, node, interface and deployment design around the complete robot mission.
- Node and lifecycle design
- DDS and QoS strategy
- Launch and configuration
- System composition
02 / ROS2
Navigation and perception
Localisation, mapping, planning and sensor processing for real operating environments.
- SLAM and localisation
- Path and motion planning
- Sensor fusion
- Vision and point-cloud processing
03 / ROS2
Control and hardware integration
Deterministic interfaces joining ROS software to actuators, safety systems and embedded devices.
- ros2_control
- Hardware interfaces
- Real-time boundaries
- Safety-state integration
04 / ROS2
Simulation and field tooling
Reproducible environments, observability and deployment controls for engineering and fleet support.
- Simulation environments
- Scenario regression
- Rosbag and telemetry
- Release and update tooling
Delivery model
Technical depth with executive visibility.
Scope, technical decisions, risk and handover stay visible across the complete engagement.
01
Align
Define the outcome, constraints, authority and evidence required for a sound decision.
02
Architect
Design system boundaries, integration, security and the delivery path before committing to scale.
03
Deliver
Build in controlled increments and test the assumptions that carry the greatest consequence.
04
Operate
Instrument production, transfer ownership and improve the system from operating evidence.
Engineering position
Standards that govern delivery.
01
Timing is architectural
Control frequency, transport latency, clock behaviour and compute contention are measured under representative load.
02
Safety remains independent
Learned and general-purpose software does not silently replace safety-rated limits and deterministic stops.
03
Configuration is part of the product
Software, parameters, calibration, maps and hardware variants remain attributable by unit and release.
Bring one robot mission that must work outside the lab.
We will help define the architecture, operating envelope and verification path required for a production ROS 2 system.
