Gain access to the COMPAS ecosystem which includes a wide range of tools and libraries engineered for the AEC industry. Github repository Software 27.06.2024 COMPAS XR COMPAS XR is an open-source tool dedicated to exploring the innovative intersections of Extended Reality (XR) technologies within the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sectors. Projects: Compas_XR Software roslibpy Python ROS Bridge library allows to use Python and IronPython to interact with ROS, the open-source robotic middleware. It uses WebSockets to connect to rosbridge 2.0 and provides publishing, subscribing, service calls, actionlib, TF, and other essential ROS functionality. Unlike the rospy library, this does not require a local ROS environment, allowing usage from platforms other than Linux. Github repository Software COMPAS EVE Event-based communication infrastructure to the COMPAS framework. Using events is a way to decouple the components of a system, making it easier to develop, test, and maintain. This allow communication between different parts of a program using messages. These messages are sent around using a publisher/subscriber model. Github repository Software COMPAS FAB: Robotic fabrication package for the COMPAS Framework Robotic fabrication package for the COMPAS Framework facilitating the planning and execution of robotic fabrication processes. It provides interfaces to existing software libraries and tools available in the field of robotics (e.g. OMPL, ROS) and makes them accessible from within the parametric design environment. The package builds upon COMPAS, an open-source Python-based framework for collaboration and research in architecture, engineering and digital fabrication. Github repository Projects: compas_fab	De
