Thank you! We brought it open source only recently. We haven't made much advertisement outside the company (yet). We are

I didn't forget your question. We published the code open source recently. See https://github.com/siemens/ros-sharp/tree

We have recently published our ROS-Unity3D Toolbox ROS# on GitHub: https://github.com/siemens/ros-sharp We use rosbrid

Thank you so much gariepya! Removing these first 12 bytes is the solution to the problem with which I honestly wasted days of precious working time.

I solved my problem by writing a ROS service that requires a "package://..." filename as input and returns the contents of that file. It is basically a very simple read-only ROS file server.

I like this solution since: - i do not need to set up additional server beside ROSbridge - in contrast to the ros3djs solution, i can load the meshes directly from the ROS PC and do not need any external repositories. - i can read the Collada mesh files in a very similar way as i read the urdf JSON message on the client side.

Setting up a http server beside the ROSbridge server on the ROS PC definitely is an option. I was already think about doing it that way. But I was hoping that ROS(bridge) had the possiblity to send the mesh data in a similar way to the URDF data.

If I understood the Robot Web Tools URDF demo right, the meshes are downloaded from a server, and are not communicated via rosbridge: http://wiki.ros.org/ros3djs#Mesh_Reso...

Thanks for these hints gvdhoorn! (Multiple comments due to limited space...)

I currently use rosbridge_suite only: On the client side, I resolve the JSON messages driectly in C#, without using any of those great javascript libraries from Robot Web Tools.

Hi,

I'm using rosbridge_suite to visualize the robot on a windows machine in VR. Ideally, I would like to recieve the complete robot's description directly from the robot.

I managed to recieve the plain URDF xml via "/rosapi/getparam robot_description".

Is there any possiblity to load the meshes which are referenced in the URDF in a similar way? Or do I have to copy them manually?

Thank you for your advise!
