ROS 2 Standard Node Generation and Deployment
Standard nodes are the most basic type of ROS 2 nodes. They are easy to implement and have these characteristics:
They operate independently and run in their own process.
They have their own
mainfunction.They are deployed as executables along with their C++ code packages.
Because standard nodes run in independent processes, they may require higher computational resources and have more inter-process communication overhead time. If you are looking for a more computationally efficient way of managing a ROS 2 application with a large number of nodes, consider using ROS 2 component nodes. For more information about generating and deploying ROS 2 component nodes, see ROS 2 Component Node Generation and Deployment.
You can generate ROS 2 standard nodes from both MATLAB® and Simulink®. You can also generate CUDA® optimized code for the standard ROS 2 nodes from both MATLAB and Simulink.
Note
Deployment of ROS 2 nodes requires transfer of files to the target ROS 2 device through an SSH connection. Ensure that OpenSSH is installed on the target ROS 2 device before deployment.
