Tool for message inhibition / injection
Is there any GUI tool that allows live monitoring of ROS traffic, and potentially modification of these messages by either inhibiting them or say overriding values?
Basically something like rxbag or rqt gui but with the ability to modify messages on the fly (per example force a certain signal to a value, inhibit a message, etc.) In some sense it's a combination of the topic_tools mux/drop.
This is driven by a desire to simulate arbitrary sensor failures for a system which uses ROS for message passing to a monitoring station.
Anyway, I am hoping something like this already exists. If not, does someone have an idea of whether this is doable at all? Seems like it'd be a hybrid between topic_tools/mux & drop?
