<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Hi, I am Sambeet Panigrahi. I am a GSOC student
working on the project of porting Rock to RTEMS.I am grateful to the
RTEMS community for all the support during the last few months of
preparation and in particular to my mentors Joel Sherill and Gedare
Bloom for all the help.<br><br>I am currently in 3rd year ,enrolled in a
4 year Bachelor's Degree course in Electrical and Electronics
Engineering in IIIT,Bhubaneshwar. I started working on embedded systems 4
years ago in my 1st year of engineering specifically for robotics
applications. I have worked with ATMEGA, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Netduino
for a variety of projects.I started working on real time systems as a
part of my coursework and am still a learner in the field,curious to
know more and more:)<br><br></div>My project is to improve the existing
port of Rock to RTEMS.Rock is a very popular robotics framework with a
large library of components and packages pertaining to the needs of
robotics developers.Its one of the most highly used software by ESA
along with RTEMS.<br><br></div>As a part of this GSOC 2016, I will pick
up from where the last SOCIS project left and continue to make the port
better by adding recipes to RTEMS Source Builder an Rock's Autoproj.This
would decrease the toil involved in the port. Further I would also
port useful libraries of Rock to RTEMS.<br><br></div>I am now going
through the existing scripts from the old port and will soon proceed to
my first step of adding RTEMS support to Orocos.<br><br></div>I would like to congratulate all my fellow GSOC students.Happy Coding!:)</div>
