ROS1 and Isaac Sim integration . Is it available or possible?

Software ROS1

I am working on a simulation in Nvidia Isaac Sim and using the ZED Camera USD asset attached on a robot and the “sl.sensor.camera” extension provided by StereoLabs to generate depth map and point cloud of a scene in the simulation.

I came across this example but the package is a ros2 package using some not catkin packages. But I need to work on ros1. Is there any available package in ROS1 that I can use for this same task ?

Thanks and regards,
Tribikram.

Hi @threedee003
Welcome to the StereoLabs community.

Unfortunately, ROS1 is not currently supported by our extension plugin for ISAAC Sim, and it is not on our roadmap due to low demand.

Thanks for your reply Walter. I understand.

Hey @Myzhar ,
Can you please tell me if I can use the example given in the link above to move a ZED camera around a room asset in Isaac Sim to generate a point cloud 3d map of the room ? I saw a demo creating a 3d map using the ZED scanner on YouTube channel of StereoLabs but it might have been using the ZED 2 camera data and ZED SDK.

Yes, you can use the ISAAC Sim plugin in the same way as if you have a real ZED Camera connected to the PC.
