The EoL for ROS Noetic is scheduled May 31st, 2025. I’m curios if there are plans to support the ZA6 in ROS2 and what the timeline for that migration might look like.
I believe hal_ros_control has had ROS2 support for over 2 years. It’s been a while since I have updated my Pathpilot images, but it looks like these still contain the Noetic tag in the image name.
Thanks!
@arbogastaw I’m curious if Tormach got back to you about this?
I have not heard back yet, but still hoping for ROS2 support in the near future.
Hi Alex, thanks for posting this! After we saw your question, I cleaned up and pushed our initial ROS 2 support git repo, including robot hardware drivers and MoveIt2 configuration, but without the Tormach robot UI and TRPL interpreter.
We developed this some time back, in part, with customers in mind who don’t care as much about the UI, and just want direct access to the MoveIt2 or ros_control layers. Hope it’s useful to you.
@John_Morris This looks exactly like what I was looking for. Thank you! I will give this a shot on our system and report back with any success/issues we have along the way.
