Ubuntu 22.04 with ROS 2 Humble and Ubuntu 24.04 with ROS 2 Jazzy are both fully supported by Olive Robotics components, ensuring smooth integration and optimal performance across both LTS platforms. Whether using IMUs, AI-powered camera sensors, or EdgeROS drivers, all Olive Robotics hardware and software modules operate flawlessly on these distributions. The ROS 2 native design of the components guarantees plug-and-play compatibility, and key features such as real-time data streaming, sensor fusion, and neural network inference are thoroughly tested and stable on both setups. This flexibility allows developers and roboticists to choose the distribution that best fits their project timeline or ecosystem without compromising on reliability or performance.

ROS 2 Humble is preinstalled and working in all Olive Components as default, but if you need to activate ROS 2 Jazzy and use Ubuntu 24.04 please follow this steps:
