ROS support for VOXL2
-
Hello,
I received a VOXL2 that shipped as is (output of the voxl-version command):
system-image: 1.2.1-M0054-14.1a-perf
kernel: #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 18 20:36:27 UTC 2022 4.19.125
hw version: M0054
voxl-suite: 0.6.0
The ROS setup instructions found on https://docs.modalai.com/setup-ros-on-voxl/ don't seem to apply to this platform release: no /home/root/my_ros_env.sh script, no setup.sh script in /opt/ros/melodic.
Am I missing something?
Can you share the instructions for me to run ROS on this platform release?
Or should I upgrade to a newer one?Thanks,

Hi Jeff,
Those instructions are custom for the original voxl platform because it's using a very custom system image with ros embedded. The voxl2 system image is built on a standard ubuntu 18.04 image and so you can follow any standard instructions from the ROS docs for ubuntu 18.04 to install and configure ROS(or ROS2) on voxl2.

Thank you Alex!
