Use ROS2 Bridge on Ubuntu 18.04

Hi,
I installed Isaac Sim (latest) on my Ubuntu 18.04 machine to play around and see what it can do.
Now, I would like to use ROS2 bridge to push my tests further, but from what I read in the documentation, the recommendation is to use ROS2 Foxy + Ubuntu 20.04. But it is also said in Isaac Sim’s requirements that it only supports Ubuntu 18.04.

Is there a mistake in the documentation ?

Sources of the mismatch : 1. Isaac Sim Requirements — Omniverse Robotics documentation and ROS & ROS2 Bridge — Omniverse Robotics documentation

Thanks !

Hi dsauval,

No there is no mistake in the documentation. The preferred setup is to use ROS2 Foxy that would run in container or on another Ubuntu 20.04 machine.

Kindly,
Liila
