Part 3: Creating and Simulating a Custom Robot with ROS 2

In this third and last part, you will go beyond just the Python or C++ code. New concepts and tools will be introduced, such as TF, URDF, RViz, and Gazebo. With those, and the knowledge you got in Part 1 and Part 2, you will build a new project to simulate a robot with ROS 2. Finally, the last chapter concludes the book with recommendations on what to do and learn next.

This part contains the following chapters:

• Chapter 10, Discovering TFs with RViz
• Chapter 11, Creating a URDF for a Robot
• Chapter 12, Publishing TFs and Packaging the URDF
• Chapter 13, Simulating a Robot in Gazebo
• Chapter 14, Going Further – What to Do Next
