I would like to dedicate this episode to all the ROS developers out there who are thinking and worrying about the future of ROS. If you are worried about whether ROS will become irrelevant in the future or if all the companies building humanoid robots will replace ROS, then this episode is dedicated to you!

Before diving in, let me introduce BotBox, an All-in-one Robotics Platform for Teaching. It’s a Lab-in-a-Box for robotics education, enabling you to deliver hands-on robotics classes with ease.
