ROS 2 Multi-Node Communication TSN Accelerated Application

by: AMD

Synchronized Real Time Clocks are a key enabler for automation of complex processes and a deterministic behavior of a system with multiple sensors, actuators, and controllers. The Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) Subsystem from AMD offers Time synchronization and the time-aware transmission of Ethernet Frames with low jitter. Because it comes with two external interfaces, it can be used for larger networks without needing an external TSN switch.

Features:

  • Synchronization of real-time clocks in a network of TSN nodes (IEEE 802.1AS-2020)
  • Time-aware transmission of Ethernet Frames with low frame jitter, including Stream Identification (802.1Q-2018 Clause 8.6.8.4 and clause 8.8)
  • Frame pre-emption allowing pause and resume to give interspersing traffic priority (802.1Q-2018 Clause 6.7.2, 802.3-2018 section 7 clause 99)
  • Wire speed Best Effort Traffic
  • Complete application including HW design

Adaptive Computing in Robotics

Demand for robotics is accelerating rapidly. Building a robot that is safe and secure and can operate alongside humans is difficult enough. But getting these technologies working together can be even more challenging. Complicating matters is the addition of machine learning and artificial intelligence which is making it more difficult to keep up with computational demands. Roboticists are turning toward adaptive computing platforms which offer lower latency and deterministic, multi-axis control with built-in safety and security on an integrated, adaptable platform that is expandable for the future.
