[FEATURE]: Improve support for new models #14

Closed evan-palmer closed 11 months ago

evan-palmer commented 1 year ago

Feature Type

Changing existing functionality in Angler

Problem Description

The existing implementation is pretty geared towards a single UVMS model: the BlueROV2 Heavy modified to move the thrusters from the upper chasis to the lower chasis with a single Reach Alpha 5 manipulator integrated. The system has been fundamentally designed to support alternative configurations according to a user's needs; however, this support has not yet been exposed and isn't fully evident through the configuration and launch files made available.

Feature Description

Re-organize the model-specific files into their own unique directories. Furthermore, create a base launch file from which users can define launch configurations for their own models.

Alternative Solutions

N/A

Additional Context

The inspiration for the proposed changes comes from the following:
