The COMPARE ecosystem aims to create a greater cohesion between open-source products that improves the modularity of open-source components in the robot manipulation pipeline for more effective performance benchmarking. COMPARE seeks to unite the existing community of users and developers to build upon and integrate existing open-source products as well as improve and evolve the future of robot manipulation research. This is achieved through the generation of community-driven standards for components of software pipelines, benchmarking practices, objects, datasets, and hardware designs. 

To get involved, join the COMPARE Slack, participate in community discussions, attend events, and check out our continually evolving online resources!
