About:
Foxglove is a comprehensive visualization and debugging suite designed specifically for robotics development. It allows users to inspect and analyze complex sensor data, robot state, and debugging information in real-time. The tool supports various data formats and provides a flexible interface for building custom debugging dashboards.
Key Features:
  • Real-time data visualization for sensor streams and robot state
  • Support for multiple data formats including ROS, MCAP, and JSON
  • Customizable layout system for building debugging dashboards
  • Built-in tools for message inspection and timeline analysis
Use Cases:
  • Debugging autonomous vehicle sensor fusion pipelines
  • Analyzing ROS-based robot behavior during development
  • Inspecting real-time telemetry data from robotics systems
Alternatives:
  • rviz – ROS-native visualization tool, less flexible for non-ROS data
  • rqt – ROS GUI plugin framework, requires ROS ecosystem
