A robotics toolbox for advanced research and innovative products
The ImFusion Robotics and ROS plugins enable you to create bleeding-edge robotic applications - without trade-offs between
development speed, performance, and reliability.
Our modern, consistent APIs allow to quickly build complex workflows with low development and maintenance effort. Our high-quality software components implement state-of-the-art methods, providing a solid baseline and strong platform for scientific research. At the same time, they can be rapidly tailored and included into certified medical devices.

The Robotics plugin provides a solid, comprehensive and customisable environment:
- Intuitive GUI and C++ API for motion planning and execution
- Native, ROS-free integration with Franka Emika and Universal Robots devices
- Fast integration of custom end effectors
- Simple handling of multi-robot scenarios
- Convenient framework for the integration of custom robots and control strategies
- Interactive hand-eye calibration utility
- Easy combination with the whole ImFusion portfolio for surgical navigation, freehand ultrasound, RGBD reconstruction, and more
The ROS plugin gives you the best of ROS, with added convenience:
- Fast installation: no previous ROS installation required
- ROS1/2 agnostic API: code once, run everywhere
- Windows support: double-click on our installer, and access all of ROS and MoveIt!
- Deep integration: connect ImFusion Streams to ROS topics and tf, import and export rosbags, start a ROS1 master, ...
- MoveIt! connection: plan and execute motions for an external MoveIt! instance from the ImFusion GUI or C++ SDK
