ROS-Industrial<ref>{{cite web|url=https://rosindustrial.org/about/description/|title=ROS-Industrial About|website=rosindustrial.org|access-date=12 December 2017}}</ref> is an open-source project (BSD (legacy) / Apache 2.0 (preferred) license) that extends the advanced capabilities of ROS to manufacturing automation and robotics. The ROS-Industrial repository includes interfaces for common industrial manipulators, grippers, sensors, and device networks. It also provides software libraries for automatic 2D/3D sensor calibration, process path/motion planning, applications like Scan-N-Plan, developer tools like the Qt Creator ROS Plugin, and training curriculum that is specific to the needs of manufacturers. ROS-I is supported by an international Consortium of industry and research members. The project began as a collaborative endeavor between Yaskawa Motoman Robotics, Southwest Research Institute, and Willow Garage to support the use of ROS for manufacturing automation, with the GitHub repository being founded in January 2012 by Shaun Edwards (SwRI). Currently, the Consortium is divided into three groups; the ROS-Industrial Consortium Americas (led by SwRI and located in San Antonio, Texas), the ROS-Industrial Consortium Europe (led by Fraunhofer IPA and located in Stuttgart, Germany) and the ROS-Industrial Consortium Asia Pacific (led by Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and located in Singapore).▼
The Consortia supports the global ROS-Industrial community by conducting ROS-I training, providing technical support and setting the future roadmap for ROS-I, as well as conducting pre-competitive joint industry projects to develop new ROS-I capabilities.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://rosindustrial.org/briefhistory/|title=Brief History|website=ROS-Industrial|language=en-US|access-date=2018-07-11}}</ref>▼
ROS releases may be incompatible with other releases and are often referred to by code name rather than version number. ROS currently releases a version every year in May. On odd numbered years, the release is supported for two years, and on even numbered years the release is designated long-term support release and supported for five years. This loosely follows the Ubuntu release cycle. ROS2 currently releases a new version every six months (in December and July). These releases are supported for a single year.
