###  Stars


In this case, the plume runs independently from the [ UUV Simulator
](https://github.com/uuvsimulator/uuv_simulator) . In order to start this
example using one of the Gazebo worlds from UUV Simulator and therefore use
the current velocity topic generated by [ a Gazebo plugin
](https://github.com/uuvsimulator/uuv_simulator/blob/master/uuv_world_plugins/uuv_world_ros_plugins/include/uuv_world_ros_plugins/UnderwaterCurrentROSPlugin.hh)
, start the example first as


ign topic -l


* [ Pricing ](/pricing)


##  History


In ROS 1, ` gazebo_ros_api_plugin ` was a large plugin which offered a lot of
functionality in a bundle, giving users little flexibility to opt-in/out of
features.


##  Example of usage


And then click in the button âAddâ to include a display to visualize the
lidar:

##  Purpose of the project
This software is a research prototype, originally developed for the EU ECSEL
Project 662107 [ SWARMs ](http://swarms.eu/) .
The software is not ready for production use. However, the license conditions
of the applicable Open Source licenses allow you to adapt the software to your
needs. Before using it in a safety relevant setting, make sure that the
software fulfills your requirements and adjust it according to any applicable
safety standards (e.g. ISO 26262).
##  Requirements
To simulate the plume, please refer to the [ UUV Simulator
](https://github.com/uuvsimulator/uuv_simulator) repository and follow the
installation instructions of the package. Then you can clone this package in
the ` src ` folder of you catkin workspace

    cd ~/catkin_ws/src
    git clone https://github.com/uuvsimulator/uuv_plume_simulator.git

and then build your catkin workspace


Now you should see the data from the lidar in Rviz2:

The ROS 2 port of ` gazebo_ros_pkgs ` has debian packages released for the
Crystal Clemmys distribution.


In ROS 1, each plugin typically had one or more ` ros::NodeHandle ` instances
to interact with ROS.

###  Forks


Repositories


There are several configurations which Gazebo ROS plugins commonly want to set
through SDF, and in the ROS 1 implementation, there was a lot of duplicate
code on plugins parsing the same things, sometimes following loose
conventions.

* ` gazebo_ros ` : Provides convenient C++ classes and functions which can be used by other plugins, such as ` gazebo_ros::Node ` , conversion and testing utilities. It also provides some generally useful plugins.


Currently, the only supported Gazebo version is Gazebo 9.

* 2 Configuring ROS 2


In ROS 2, plugins use ` gazebo_ros::Node ` instead, which allows each plugin
to exist as its own node in the ROS graph, with its own parameters, namespace,
loggers, etc. Plugins also don't need to worry about spinning the node or
keeping callback queues - ` gazebo_ros ` handles all that internally.

MoveIt normally generates joint trajectories that can then be executed by
sending them to a robot with a controller capable of executing these
trajectories. Most commonly, we connect to the [ ros2_control
](https://control.ros.org/master/index.html) library to achieve this.

Many of the MoveIt tutorials, as well as MoveIt packages you will encounter in
the wild, use ROS 2 launch files.


While ` ros2_control  ` allows you to connect to real robot hardware, or
robots in a physics-based simulator like Gazebo or NVIDIA Isaac Sim, it also
exposes a [ mock components
](https://control.ros.org/master/doc/ros2_control/hardware_interface/doc/mock_components_userdoc.html)
capability for simple, idealized simulations. In our example, this is
configured at the URDF level using the ` use_fake_hardware  ` xacro parameter
defined earlier on. The key idea is that regardless of which hardware
(simulated or real) is launched, the ` ros2_control  ` launch remains the
same.

##  ◆  generate_static_virtual_joint_tfs_launch()


I am trying to configure my robot URDF file for the moveit2 ROS foxy and run
my robot on ` moveit2 ` . I generated URDF file using Solid works. As there is
no setup assistant for the moveit2 ROS foxy, I configured my URDF file using
moveit1 noetic. And added that file to the moveit2 foxy workspace. And i
changed the ` Cmakefile ` and ` package.xml ` file with reference to the `
fanuc_moveit_config ` . And my robot URDF package is exactly similar to the `
fanuc_moveit_config ` .


* Open Source


MoveIt requires several configuration parameters to include the robot
description and semantic description files ( [ URDF and SRDF
](../../examples/urdf_srdf/urdf_srdf_tutorial.html#urdf-and-srdf) ), motion
planning and kinematics plugins, trajectory execution, and more. These
parameters are usually contained in a [ MoveIt Configuration
](../moveit_configuration/moveit_configuration_tutorial.html#moveit-
configuration) package.


Once all the MoveIt configuration parameters have been loaded, you can launch
the [ Move Group C++ Interface
](../../examples/move_group_interface/move_group_interface_tutorial.html#move-
group-interface) using the entire set of loaded MoveIt parameters.


However, I would point out that (per the source repository): "Use ROS-
Industrial's upstream files if you actually want to work with the robot!". So,
you may not be using this package properly.

I've updated my answer to answer that, but I think the source of the confusion
is that running a launchfile is pretty well-documented, so it's not totally
clear what specific issue you may be having here. Is there any reason this
launch file doesn't seem to be working for you?

My robot URDF file is building properly and and I am able to see my robot urdf
config and ` moveit_resources_fanuc_moveit_ config ` packages in launch
packages. But when i see the launch files in that particular packages, I am
unable to launch the ` demo.launch ` file both the packages. And I am able to
see only the ` .xml ` files in the launch files list of the both packages.


Hi, I am using moveit2 on ros2 foxy.

Then pickup a group in the **Query Planning Group** from the **Motion
Planning** panel (right arm, left arm or head) and move the blue ball
appearing at the tip of the end effector to some goal pose. Then click **Plan
and Execute** to plan a trajectory with obstacle avoidance and run it with
fake trajectory controllers.

Many tools in the ROS ecosystem use the [ tf2
](https://docs.ros.org/en/rolling/Concepts/Intermediate/About-Tf2.html)
library to represent coordinate transforms, which are an important part of
motion planning with MoveIt.

of launching, its only showing the .xml files only. And as you can see that
the cmakefile file in that repo link above is also contains ROS2 commands.

Starting ` ros2_control  ` involves launching a controller manager node, and
then spawning a list of controllers necessary for trajectory execution. In our

[ @markus ](/users/4121/markus/) I've updated my answer. For some of the tags,
you'll have to provide the full xml hierarchy using proper sdf ( [
