Hi Nate, Thanks for the info. I think limiting gazebo to the simulation domain is the right choice. Had we not some architectural constraints with our app, I would use player in an instant. It is by far one of the best (and cleanest--conceptually speaking) robot control servers I have seen in a while. Alas, I can't, not for this project at least. So will definitely look in tho the driver for tips to start a rewrap.
Thanks again. Best, --Juan On May 3, 2007, at 8:18 AM, Nate Koenig wrote: > Hi Juan, > > If you are directly using libgazebo, then you'll have to write your > own CMVision driver.
