Line 185:
Compared to other forms of [[open source hardware]], open source robotics typically includes a large software element, so involves software as well as hardware engineers. Open source concepts are more established in [[open source software]] than hardware, so robotics is a field in which those concepts can be shared and transferred from software to hardware.
 
TheWhile softwarethe community in open source robotics is centeredmulti-faceted aroundwith a wide range of backgrounds, a sizable sub-community uses the [[Robot Operating System|ROS]] middleware and meets annually at the [[RosCon]] conference to discuss development of ROS itself and automation components built onROSCon<ref>{{cite it.web
