What problem does it solve?

Configuring Gazebo URDF/Xacro with the correct Gazebo plugins is often error-prone and verbose, leading to missing plugins or misconfigurations that break simulations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Supports standard Gazebo plugins for diff-drive, joint-state publishing, IMU, lidar, and camera simulations within URDF/Xacro.
  • Provides naming conventions and integration guidelines to ensure smooth bridging between ROS 2 and Gazebo.
  • Use case: adopt in a ROS 2 robot description to enable realistic physics and sensor simulations in Gazebo.

Quick Start

Add the gz-sim plugin blocks to your URDF/Xacro as demonstrated.
