+# Release Notes: Autonomous Mobile Robot
+
+## Version 2026.0
+
+**April 01, 2026**
+
+Autonomous Mobile Robot has been updated to fully support ROS 2 Jazzy. This brings latest
+generation ROS support on the latest Intel silicon, enabling workloads to take the
+advantage of hardware accelerators such as the GPU and NPU.
+
+**New**
+
+- Add support for ROS 2 Jazzy across all components.
+- **Simulations**
+  - Migrate the pick-and-place simulation from Gazebo Classic (Ignition) to Gazebo Harmonic:
+    - Replace `sim_ignition` with `sim_gazebo` across all launch files and plugin configurations.
+    - Update vacuum tool plugin and conveyor belt plugin for Gazebo Harmonic joint management API.
+  - Add `cyclonedds.xml` for DDS middleware configuration.
+  - Add the `odom_tf_publisher` node to bridge Gazebo Harmonic's DiffDrive odometry to the
+    ROS TF tree (required because the Harmonic DiffDrive plugin no longer publishes TF directly).
+- **Robot configuration (robot_config)**
+  - Add MoveIt controller manager configurations for arm1 and arm2.
+  - Add `joint_limits_arm1.yaml` / `joint_limits_arm2.yaml` per-arm joint limit configs.
+  - Add parallel gripper URDF xacro and vacuum VG4 example xacro.
+  - Add the `robot_config.dsv.in` environment hooks for Humble and Jazzy.
+- **Collaborative SLAM**
+  - Add a safe build option and update documentation for memory management:
+    - Prevention of system crashes on memory-constrained systems.
+    - Support for oneAPI 2025.x/SYCL 8 development.
+    - A generic and environment-agnostic approach.
+    - Fully backward compatible.
+  - Add the troubleshooting guide.
+- **Pick-and-Place Controllers (picknplace)**
+  - Add Idle SMACH state in amr_controller for a clean single-cycle demo completion.
+  - Add 30s timeout waiting for joint states with a descriptive error log, and
+    DEBUG-level logging for `move_to_pose calls` in moveit2.
+  - Register `amr_controller` as an entry point in `setup.py`.
+- **Orb-Extractor**
+  - Add a debugging framework.
+  - Introduce compatibility checks and adjustments for `OPENCV_FREE` mode in various test files.
+- **ITS Planner**
+  - Add automatic ROS distro detection to `install_deb_relocalization_pkgs.sh`.
+  - Add a distro-specific environment variable handling (`GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH` vs `GZ_SIM_RESOURCE_PATH`).
+- **ADBScan**
+  - Add `ros-jazzy-gazebo-ros-pkgs` to `debian/control` Build-Depends and runtime Depends.
+  - Add notes on support for Jazzy to the debian changelog.
+
+**Improved**
+
+- **Robot configuration (robot_config)**
+  - Refactor robot configuration for Gazebo Harmonic compatibility.
+  - Update nav2 launch files (humble/jazzy/foxy), warehouse launch, and AMR launch.
+  - Update TurtleBot3 waffle SDF models (standard, tray+camera, tray no-camera variants).
+- **Pick-and-Place Controllers (picknplace)**
+  - Replace hardcoded coordinate offsets in arm1_controller with TF tree lookups (`tf2_ros`).
+  - `GRASP_Y_ARM` is now dynamically resolved at startup via the live TF tree with a fallback.
+  - Cube tracking uses `lookup_transform` rather than manual subtraction.
+  - Increase QoS depth from 1 to 10 in moveit2.
+- **Debian Packaging**
+  - Bump package versions: robot-config 2.3-2, picknplace 2.3-2, robot-config-plugins 3.6-2.
+- **Orb-extractor**
+  - Update build dependencies in the control files for Intel oneAPI DPC++ Compiler to version 2025.3.
+  - Remove redundant `libgpu_orb.so` from the package installation files.
+  - Adjust the test installation files to skip problematic test targets.
+  - Refactor debian/rules to streamline the build process and remove redundant test builds.
+  - Enhance the SYCL code to resolve namespace qualification issues and internal implementation errors.
+  - Apply the aggressive clean build approach for the SYCL compilation.
+  - Update `CMakeLists.txt` to reflect changes in library linking and compiler settings.
+  - Modify test source files to accommodate changes in OpenCV compatibility and removed
+    deprecated OpenCV includes.
+  - Increase Device count.
+  - Use direct memory allocation instead of memory pool for increased stability.
+- **ITS Planner**
+  - Update all README files to support both Humble and Jazzy distributions.
+  - Update the launch scripts with distro-aware package paths and configurations.
+  - Enhance the nav2 parameter files with distro-specific settings.
+  - Remove hardcoded Humble references throughout documentation.
+  - Improve the `collab_slam` script with automatic ROS environment detection.
+- **ADBScan**
+  - Update `CMakeLists.txt` to support both Humble and Jazzy with Gazebo Harmonic on Ubuntu 24.04.
+  - Update Makefile to include the `turtlebot3_simulations` package for Jazzy builds.
+  - Update the version in the `package.xml` to match debian changelog (2.3.0).
+
+**Fixed**
+
+- **Debian Packaging**
+  - Fix debian/rules executable permissions (from 644 to 755) across all packages
+    (required by dpkg-buildpackage).
+- **Orb-Extractor**
+  - Fix a memory leak.
+- **Pick-and-Place Controllers (picknplace)**
+  - Fix node namespace - from `/ARM2Controller` to `/arm2/ARM2Controller`.
+  - Fix `amr_goto_pose` in amr_controller to use proper yaw-to-quaternion conversion:
+    (`sin(yaw/2)`, `cos(yaw/2)`) instead of `raw z=0.004`.
