Interface other simulators

[fred-labs]

At the moment only Gazebo and PyBullet are supported (through the library scenario_execution_gazebo and scenario_execution_pybullet).

We would like to support further simulations.

Potential simulators to support (list might get extended):

• MuJoCo
• carla
• webots

Required Skills

• Python
• (optional) simulator-specific knowledge
• (optional) ROS2 basics

Challenges

Interfacing a new simulator through scenario-execution might be challenging because of the different design decisions. While e.g. Gazebo is "ticking" (i.e. moving forward in simulation time) stand-alone and publishing data to ROS2 directly (through network interfaces) others might need scenario-execution to tick (e.g. scenario_execution_pybullet).
