Installing ROS on Windows 11 to control Franka Emika and Realsense camera
No problem :-) I ported the lib and ros2 driver to Windows. The franka code doesn't have dependencies set up, so colcon has trouble resolving when you include both the lib and the driver in the same workspace. You can just build multiple times, or have a separate workspace for the library and another for the ros2 driver. Here's the staging repos: https://github.com/ms-iot/libfranka https://github.com/ms-iot/franka_ros2

Installing ROS on Windows 11 to control Franka Emika and Realsense camera
I do see that it has been ported to ROS2 (https://github.com/frankaemika/franka_ros2), but doesn't seem to have been touched in 2 years; so not sure how well it works on current ROS2 builds.
What are some alternatives?
