Official ROS1 Support Request

[JonasFrey96]

Hello Nvidia,

thanks a lot for your awesome work on Nvblox. It would be great if you could also provide an official ROS1 wrapper for this package. Most deployed robots in research are still operating on ROS1.

This would be a great enhancement and benefit a large part of the community.

Best Jonas

+1 This could benefit very well.

+1 This would be really helpful to test and integrate within current running projects, which as mentioned are based on ROS1.

Based on my past experience, this would be a benefit to companies for sure. +1

Hey all, thanks for the feedback and interest! Though Isaac ROS is only aimed at ROS2 and only supports ROS2, I will try to get an unsupported ROS1 example implementation so people can try it out and use it for benchmarking, and fork + extend as they will for their own ROS1 applications. :) I'll try to do this as soon as possible.

Is there any news on this topic?

Unofficial modified ROS 1, but remove the sim and nav module https://github.com/hjxwhy/nvblox_ros1, just test success on 3dmatch_node, under developing

Isaac ROS only supports ROS2 unfortunately as Open Robotics has shifted their efforts away towards Humble and its successors. ROS1 ports from the community are always welcome and shouldn't be too difficult to implement.
