  • What are your questions and pain points in ROS2?
    2 projects | /r/ROS | 20 Jul 2021
    I found the ROS2 concept and design much more well established, especially for industrial. My problem on porting was more like when something available in ROS1 concept is not supported in the ROS2 concept. For example the infamous ira_laser_tools. This package basically merges all the scanning laser topics and publishes it as one so we can use it for AMCL / navigation (with the PointClouds too). The package will use ros::master api so it can manipulate the value alongside the data type format in which such concept is not supported in ROS2. In ROS1 we can take a list of topics with the data types in the format of std::string (topic name), std::string (data type). Laser topic parser in this package will process the data in a c++ way to get only the ones publishing sensor_msgs (scan data type). We can also call topics and the data type in ROS2, but in a format of std::map... I don't have sufficient c++ knowledge and reference to parse from the ROS2 api. I believe these kind of difficulties is also why nobody is working on it too.. In cases like these, how do you tackle the issue?
