Online ROS Training in South Africa

Practical Rapid Prototyping for Robotics with ROS 2 & Docker is a hands-on course designed to help developers build, test, and deploy robotic applications efficiently. Participants will learn how to containerize robotics environments, integrate ROS 2 packages, and prototype modular robotic systems using Docker for reproducibility and scalability. The course emphasizes agility, version control, and collaboration practices suitable for early-stage development and innovation teams.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level to intermediate-level participants who wish to accelerate robotics development workflows using ROS 2 and Docker.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up a ROS 2 development environment within Docker containers.
• Develop and test robotic prototypes in modular, reproducible setups.
• Use simulation tools to validate system behavior before hardware deployment.
• Collaborate effectively using containerized robotics projects.
• Apply continuous integration and deployment concepts in robotics pipelines.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lectures and demonstrations.
• Hands-on exercises with ROS 2 and Docker environments.
• Mini-projects focused on real-world robotic applications.
