Hi, I just got an iRobot Create 2, see the link http://www.irobot.com/About-iRobot/ST...

I tried to use ROS on it; soon, I find it is not that straightforward. Here are what I did so far. I installed ROS Indigo on a virtual machine with Ubuntu 14.04. Then, I looked for the package related to this iRobot Create 2 on the ROS.org , this is what I found http://www.ros.org/browse/search.php?...

Then, I installed the create_driver in my Indigo ROS. I think this driver is for iRobot Create not iRobot Create 2. Here, I want to ask for help. Does anyone here have some experience on how to make iRobot Create 2 move via ROS Indigo? Thanks! If you are interested or also stuck as me, we may team up to figure this out.

Miko, I see that your source code have directory called gazebo What do you use gazebo for?

In the package we also provide a urdf model of the irobotcreate, inside the folders model and gazebo you can find the xacro files, while in the iRobot folder you can find the urdf.
