In this workshop studets will learn about the Kria™ System-on-Module (SOM) and Kria KR260 Robotics Starter Kit, enabling to accelerate robotics-based applications using the KR260 Starter Kit right out of the box without any installation or FPGA knowledge. The workshop also covers Robot Operating System 2 (ROS 2) and how to use the Kria Robotics Stack (KRS) and run pre-built accelerated robotics applications. Additionally, design guidelines for developing your own carrier card will be discussed.

The emphasis of this course is on:

1. Providing an overview of the Kria K26 SOM and its advantages
2. Providing an overview of the Kria KR260 Robotics Starter Kit, its interfaces, and how to get started with the kit
3. Describing the Robot Operating System (ROS) and Kria Robotics Stack (KRS) and how KRS enables roboticists to get up and running with ROS
4. Running accelerated applications using an Ubuntu image:
   • ROS 2 Multi-Node Communication via TSN accelerated application
   • ROS 2 Perception Node accelerated application
   • 10 Gigabit Ethernet-based Machine Vision Camera accelerated application

In the final part of the workshop will be reviewed design guidelines for developers to design their own carrier card.
