CREATING A PUBLISHER AND SUBSCRIBER NODES USING PYTHON
Introduction. In ROS2(Robot Operating System 2), a node is the smallest executable unit that performs computation. It is essentially a process that communicates with other nodes to exchange data (via topics, services, or actions) and perform tasks in a robotic system. ROS 2 publishers and subscribers are the basic communication mechanism between nodes using topics. They can be created by either using python or C++ language. But in this blog we will be creating both the publisher and subscriber nodes using python.
