<p class="project-desc">
A three-tier architecture for warehouse sorting: a ROS2 Fleet layer handling navigation, path planning, and task management across multiple robots; a Rust-based Communication Hub using gRPC/Modbus for status and messaging; and a Python Delivery Hub simulating a PLC with GUI-driven bin management. Uses A* path planning on a predefined map and a state machine task manager (with Behaviour Tree support for scaling).

Search any location on Earth, draw a rectangular region of interest on an interactive map, place a spawn marker, and hit generate — the tool fetches real elevation (Mapbox DEM) and satellite imagery to produce a fully complete Gazebo SDF world. Configurable tile resolution and output paths via env vars. Featured on the official Gazebo website.
