The following repository,stonefish_ros2_marine_robotics
similar to the previous one, provides you an excellent opportunity to simulate marine robotics (here BlueROV2 and BlueBoat) with the state-of-the-art simulator StoneFish and prototype your algorithm with ROS2 or ArduPilot.
Hey @markusbuchholz Thanks for sharing! I was following the guide in the readme and was able to spin up a bluerov but I am having some sort of issue when trying to run a blueboat… keeping everything the same but running ros2 launch cola2_stonefish blueboat_launch.py and sim_vehicle.py -v Rover -f boat --model JSON --map -l 55.9954153, -3.301022500,0,0 -m --streamrate=-1 the sim starts up but ardurover never gets a heartbeat from the vehicle: Waiting for heartbeat from tcp:127.0.0.1:5760 MAV> link 1 down
Any suggestions on what I need to do differently? Thanks!
Thank you for the quick response! I spun up the blueboat and was successfully able to control the vehicle. Just a few notes on the instructions in case you care… the launch script for the blueboat is blueboat_sim.py not blueboat_sim.launch.py and the example script I found was test.py (where I needed to set the boat ip to the local host)
