It is wild to me out the embedded engineering and robotics communities are isolated. Robotics includes mechanical engineering not part of embedded, but it seems the tools, outlook, and approaches between the two are different.

Starting, but not limited to a "T".(ROS: Robotics community; RTOS: Embedded community)

Involving anything managed by a GPOS (e.g. Linux) in robotics is something I would use with extreme caution, and for limited cases like a CV module.
