I've been looking at the ROS Android NDK stuff that Gary Servin presented at ROSCon 2015: httpsplayer.vimeo.com/video/142149946 My hobby is ROS, but my day job is doing Android Platform Development (custom AOSP stuff). The ROS Android NDK stuff you're working on is therefore super interesting to me! Have you guys managed to realize your goal of implementing a ROS robot entirely on an Android device? I'm eager to follow along in your footsteps, and contribute in whatever way I can. |

@jpuderer yes you can run ros on Android to control your robot. There are two ways of doing so:
We are addressing 1. by adding new functionality to Rosjava. |

@ecorbellini Thank you for your reply! However, I also wanted to know a bit more about what you (and others) have managed to build using ROS on Android. I'm interested to know if anyone has managed to implement a robot that runs entirely on an Android device. I know this should be possible (based on a combination of packages built using the methods you describe), but it would be great if there was an existing example or (even better) a reference robot. |

Hi @jpuderer!
I know the response came a bit late, but you can take a look here: http://wiki.ros.org/Robots/Tangobot. This hasn't been yet announced here (it's a work in progress), but the code is publicly available already.
And the answer is yes it is possible indeed. It uses RosJava, RosAndroid, and the cross compiled version of the navigation stack. Feel free to take a look there!
