I want to make an cargo mission in gazebo. I need a plugin for attaching/detaching the delivery to drone. Visualizing the mission is enough for me. Which plugin should I use? any guidance would be appreciated. (ROS2, Gazebo Garden)
@shemshamerr, Gazebo has a detachable joint that may be suitable for this purpose. The parachute plugin in ardupilot_gazebo makes use of it, and Iād imagine something similar would be suitable for cargo.
Or you could go the whole way and implement a gripper with joints that can engage with a fitting on the pacakge. That would be more design work (on the object and drone), but more accurately capture the actual mechanism needed.
