How to Build a Real-Time Object Detection and Tracking Pipeline with ROS 2 and YOLOv11
July 25, 2026 / #robotics How to Build a Real-Time Object Detection and Tracking Pipeline with ROS 2 and YOLOv11 Iyanuoluwa Enoch Oke If you've ever tried to build a robotics system that can actually see, track, and respond to the world around it, you know that the hard part isn't training a detection model. The hard part is making that model run reliably inside a real robotic software stack, in real time, without falling apart the moment hardware constraints or timing issues enter the picture. In this tutorial, you'll build a complete real-time object detection and tracking pipeline using ROS 2 and YOLOv11.
