Could use remote gazebo possible? #241

Closed JakeFishcode closed 9 months ago

Brief

I'm a Gazebo beginner, and I'm currently using ROS 2 control on an NVIDIA Orin platform. Since my remote setup is on an NVIDIA Orin, I'd like to run the control algorithms there. My question is, I want to run Gazebo on my local machine while running ROS 2 code on the Orin, and establish a connection between them using ROS 2 topics (they are on the same local network). Could you please advise if there's a way to achieve this functionality?

What is the purpose of having ros2_control on the orin but gazebo on the local machine? you want to PIL-test your code, i.e., instead of controlling your hardware it should control your model in gazebo?

As this is not really related to this repository but a general questions I ask you to post your question on RSE, possible answers will be found more easily in the future.
