Set pose of model programmatically with higher frequency (using ign transport)

edit

I don't think animation would collide with anything. I don't know how to increase the Hz :(

Question, why don't you use ros2 bridge to control the object? ROS2 uses python3

Good idea! I will try to bridge the topic /set_pose from ROS2 to ign and then send a message.

I think /set_pose is just like you grab the object and move it manually on GUI. If you want the robot to move itself, use the ros2 bridge. I've been using Foxy and it worked well. Soon I will hop into Humble Hawksbill for Citadel, Fortress and Garden

I found a way to set the pose of objects in the scene with a high frequency using a C++ script using the gazebo transport library. https://github.com/gazebosim/gz-trans...

The ROS bridge for galactic is currently not working with services. I will just spawn a C++ ROS node that calls the set pose service.

I saw your code of c++ in github! Nicely done!! Are you willing to share your secret with people like me who doesn't know how to use C++?

As a starting point these tutorials are really helpful. https://gazebosim.org/api/transport/1... Here is the rest of the transport repo: https://github.com/gazebosim/gz-trans... Where exactly can I help you? If gazebo is running you can use ign service -l in the terminal to list all the available services. ign service -h shows the help section.

Ah I learnt this info from your post: https://answers.gazebosim.org/questio...

Oh, I'm so glad you found my post helpful! It means a lot to me! This post is about the command line. I am not familiar with the C++ nor have I ever used it once. You know what, I will just look into C++ tutorials and use your C++ above to see how things work. Thank you for sharing your code!
