Abstract
This present application discloses a method and apparatus for synchronizing data in a robot operating system. A specific implementation of the method includes: detecting an operation on data being transmitted between communication processes, wherein the operation includes at least one of updating the data, deleting the data, and storing the data; determining whether the data are persistent data, in response to positively detecting an operation on the data being transmitted between the communication processes; and transmitting a change message of the data to communication processes other than the communication processes in response to positively determining that the data are persistent data. In the embodiment, the persistent data may always remain consistent across the communication processes.
