Migrate to modern Gazebo

azeey commented 6 months ago

As you may know, Gazebo-classic (aka Gazebo11, see Terminology) is no longer being actively developed and will not be available on ROS Jazzy (REP 2000). I noticed that this project still uses Gazebo-classic. Are there any plans to migrate to modern Gazebo (previously known as Ignition)?

These might be helpful resources if you do plan to migrate:

Hey, is that it? This one seems to be updated more recently. I'm a little confused about what versions of Gazebo I should use with Ros Humble. Anyone willing to shine some light into the matter it will be greatly appreciated :)

As suggested above, the "new Gazebo" support lives in https://github.com/UniversalRobots/Universal_Robots_ROS2_GZ_Simulation
