Plugin for co-simulation between MATLAB and Gazebo

Hi sir

I am trying to perform a co-simulation between MATLAB(R2023a) and Gazebo(11.11.0) to read .mat file.

The reference material is https://kr.mathworks.com/help/robotics/ug/perform-co-simulation-between-simulink-and-gazebo.html

I just want to ask if plugin for co-simulation between MATLAB and Gazebo .launch file(not .world file)

The reason why I ask is the .launch file can contain many information such as other .world files and .launch files.

So if anyone who knows about them and solved this my question, please let me know with your solution tips.

Thanks for reading my question.

Hi,

The details provided by Song-Hyun Ji are correct. I will add more details below.

As you mentioned, you have .launch file and it contains .world file. In that case, you can add plugin information in .world file and attach same for .launch file.

We have one ROS-Gaazebo CoSim example which showcase how to use Gazebo Co-Sim plugin with roslaunch. Please go through Enable Synchronization in Other ROS–Gazebo Examples in VM section.

Further, you can find more details in Gazebo tutorial.

Please try once and let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks
