Gazebo, simulation, KnowRob, PointClouds [closed]
Hi All,
As far as I understand it, KnowRob (and CRAM) are using a Bullet world to do simulation and a visualization tool based on it.
Are people going with Gazebo now as their visualization tool now? Does that work seamlessly with all of the point clouds and KnowRob/CRAM simulations (over ROS messaging)?
What would also be nice is to have independent simulations running in the Gazebo package and have messages generated from within the software to be published. Say, a ball (or a hundred) is bouncing around inside the simulation. Can the ball trigger publishing a message when it bumps into something in the sim?
Any insights appreciated.
