Robots usually consist of many complicated components. ROS provides a unique and consistent method for those components to communicate with each other via an API and a pub/sub method. That way each one of your components can handle it's own logic via whatever software it likes, just so long as you can connect to the ROS api and let the OS handle orchestrating each component. A bit like a conductor in an orchestra.
