The Platform Helping Robotics Teams Visualize and Debug Robots | Foxglove

Mateusz Sadowski from Foxglove joins us to break down how robotics teams visualize, debug, and share multimodal robot data across cameras, lidar, and logs. We talk through why “record and replay” is foundational for robotics development, how timeline scrubbing speeds up diagnosis, and how teams collaborate by sharing the exact moment an issue happens. Mateusz also walks us through Foxglove’s approach to data playback (including events), how teams stream data from ROS/ROS 2, why MCAP matters for recording robotics data, and where the robotics ecosystem is heading next — from shared tooling and open standards to foundation models and safety constraints as robots move into more real-world environments.
