Hello,
I am trying to simulate a UGV 4 wheeled robot in classic gazebo version 11.10.2. The lidar points can be visualized inside rviz2 when it is running in the robot because of the drivers(connection from base_link to os_lidar). But, when I try to simulate the robot in a different system using the robot urdf files and spawn it in a custom world in gazebo, I do not have the gazebo plugin libgazebo_ros_ouster_laser.so. Hence the /ouster/scan and /ouster/points topic is not being sent to rviz2 for visualization. Hence I cannot view the lidar data from simulation to rviz2. I am currently using ROS2 Iron for my project. Where do I find the files for plugin that is compatible with ROS2 Iron? Please help!
Hi @Vero, we don’t have such a plugin yet. We do have something on the horizon early next year for gazebo. Contact Ouster support for early access.
