Step 2: Integration into Edge Insights for Autonomous Mobile Robots#

The best way to integrate with Edge Insights for Autonomous Mobile Robots is to create a Docker* image for the robot base node.

A robot base node ROS 2 node can also be started outside of a Docker* container, but Intel® recommends creating one and adding it to the Edge Insights for Autonomous Mobile Robots to have a complete pipeline of all components needed for autonomous navigation in one yaml file.

If started outside of the SDK, use the same ROS_DOMAIN_ID for both the robot base node and the rest of the pipeline.
