Tips and troubleshooting
Workaround for an error: SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning - ‘setup.py install’ is deprecated.
Run pip install setuptools==58.2.0
Setuptools version 58.2.0 is the last version that works with ROS 2 python packages without any warnings because it is the last version that supports the old installation method, “python setup.py install.” This method has been deprecated and replaced by newer, standards-based tools, such as pip and ament.

FogROS 2 is an open-source cloud-robotics pilot platform from UC Berkeley. Cloud computing using commercial clusters such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) is now fast enough to enable secure compute-intensive robot functions such as SLAM map building from video, grasp planning, and high dimensional motion planning to be performed in the Cloud using high-performance hardware and GPUs in near real-time.
