Static examples to illustrate visual models

Underwater gliders

The following launch file starts the ocean world and adds each of the three gliders: Slocum, hybrid and wave.

To see each glider, expand the Models on the left side panel of the Gazebo window and right click the glider name and click Move To

This command launches an example ocean floor and loads three gliders into the simulation world in the Gazebo. It is meant to launch with a paused flag since the hydrodynamics of the wave glider is not developed yet. It's mainly to demonstrate the visual of the three gliders.

If you want to try the newly developed physics engine of the glider dynamics, please visit https://github.com/Field-Robotics-Lab/glider_hybrid_whoi
