AWS RoboMaker announces the support for sudo access inside robot and simulation applications at runtime. Customers now have additional flexibility to modify their robot and simulation application environment at runtime so as to align with the environment they have on their robot. With sudo access, customers can install custom software, make changes to the root filesystem, update file permissions, and troubleshoot issues.
