Minimum dependencies.

Download Links

MoveIt Pro Core ships as a zip archive per ROS 2 distribution and CPU architecture. The links below correspond to MoveIt Pro Core 9.3.1.

ROS 2 Distribution	Architecture	Download
Humble	amd64	moveit-pro-core-9.3.1-humble-amd64.zip
Humble	arm64	moveit-pro-core-9.3.1-humble-arm64.zip
Jazzy	amd64	moveit-pro-core-9.3.1-jazzy-amd64.zip
Jazzy	arm64	moveit-pro-core-9.3.1-jazzy-arm64.zip

To download an archive from a terminal instead, for example the Jazzy amd64 archive:

curl -fLO https://download.picknik.ai/core/moveit-pro-core-9.3.1-jazzy-amd64.zip

For archives from a different release, replace the version in the file name with the release you need. Release versions are listed in the release notes.

Installation Instructions

Each archive contains a set of ROS 2 Debian packages (.deb files).

Requirements

Install on a system whose Ubuntu and ROS 2 versions match the archive you downloaded:

• Humble archives require Ubuntu 22.04 with ROS 2 Humble.
• Jazzy archives require Ubuntu 24.04 with ROS 2 Jazzy.

The packages depend on core ROS 2 packages, so the ROS 2 apt repository for your distribution (Humble or Jazzy) must be configured on your system for apt to resolve their dependencies.

Extract the archive into a directory, then install every package in one apt invocation so dependencies resolve together. For example, with the Jazzy amd64 archive:

unzip moveit-pro-core-9.3.1-jazzy-amd64.zip -d moveit-pro-core
sudo apt install ./moveit-pro-core/*.deb

The leading ./ is required — it tells apt to treat the arguments as local package files rather than package names to fetch from a repository.
