Hello Community!
Here’s the information for our next May Meeting where we’ll talk about common sensors in underwater projects: sonars! Here are the details:
“This project focuses on building a GPU-accelerated SONAR simulation plugin for Gazebo that works across different hardware, instead of being tied to CUDA and NVIDIA GPUs. It replaces the existing CUDA-based approach with a wgpu-based pipeline, making it easier to run on systems using Vulkan, DirectX, or Metal. The goal is to keep performance high while making the plugin more portable and easier to integrate with Gazebo and ROS 2.”
Agenda:
- Latest news from Open Robotics about Gazebo - Addisu Tadesse, Intrinsic.
- WGPU-based SONAR Plugin for Gazebo Underwater Simulation - Naitik Pahwa, NSUT, Delhi.
