ROS (Robot Operating System) node on Nano?

I am wondering is anyone has experience getting a Nano to run as a ROS (Robot Operating System) (http://www.ros.org/) node using tcp or udp transport? ROS is a publish /subscribe protocol for sharing data across many platforms, sort of like MQTT, but with TONS of tools for modeling, simulating and operating robots. I see a post (https://forum.embeddedethernet.com/view ... =ros#p8360) from a few years ago about trying to compile and embed the ROS serial drivers on a Nano. That would be better than nothing, but using ethernet protocols would be much preferred. I also see that there is a ROS to MQTT bridge: (http://wiki.ros.org/mqtt_bridge), so maybe I could get the MQTT port described in the recent Nano/Learn article (https://www.netburner.com/learn/mqtt-ho ... 186fc61054) up, but I'd rather get a native ROS node running on the Nano if possible. Any suggestions?
