System Requirements

The following section details the recommended hardware/system configuration, as well as the required software configuration, in order to build and run ADORe and its components.

Minimum System Configurations

CPU:

  • Recommended Development System: x86-based system, such as Intel Core i7-9xxxK or better.

  • The more cores you have, the more trajectory planners you can run in parallel.

  • No dedicated graphics card is required as everything (except plotting) runs on the CPU.

  • Also Supported: ARM64 architectures, including NVIDIA Jetson platforms and raspberry pi, are supported for deployment and testing.

    For more details, see Multi-Architecture Support.

⚠️ WARNING: Building ADORe ROS nodes on systems with limited resources may cause crashes!
By default, ADORe uses parallel builds, which can overwhelm low-resource systems.
To prevent this, either:

  • Edit the .colcon_workspace/colcon_defaults.yaml file to disable parallel builds, or
  • Run a single-core build with: 
    cd .colcon_workspace && colcon build --parallel-workers 1

RAM:

  • Minimum: 8 GB for execution
  • Recommended: 16 GB+ for faster compilation

HD Storage:

  • At least 1.5 GB to clone the repository
  • At least 10 GB to build all necessary Docker contexts

Operating System:

  • Any OS supporting recent Docker versions
  • Recommended: Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04, or 24.04

Network:

  • A reliable network with high throughput and low latency.
  • The initial build can take significant time to pull dependencies from apt and Docker.
  • Poor connections can cause non-deterministic build failures.
