I am in the process of porting a robot into gazebo sim and I will be integrating a realsense as well. I have seen vslam working well in isaac sim with a depth camera (not sure if it was a realsense), but considering there are a lot more resources for gazebo and especially a first time setup I have decided go for gazebo sim for now. I’m just wondering if isaac ros vslam would work with the feeds published from gazebo and if you have any tips for how to do it?
Hi @reza11
Yes, you can use every Isaac ROS package with every type of simulator.
The Isaac ROS packages are made in ROS 2, and everything works in ROS 2. Anyone who can read ROS 2 topics can work with Isaac ROS.
I made last year a presentation, “Hands-on Isaac ROS Visual SLAM with Nanosaur” at ROS developer day 2022 on Isaac ROS vslam and Gazebo, you can find my live here
Let me know if can help you.
