Build for iOS or Smart TVs

Unity Engine
1

Hello everyone,

I have created a simulation that works very nice for Linux. According to the documentation I can build it for Windows and Mac OS as well and connect to ROS using the ROS-TCP-Connector package.

My question is, if I build for iOS , Android or a smart TV OS, or VR system such as Oculus Quest 2 will ROS-TCP-Connector works? Can I have an application for an iPad connected to ROS using TCP? Can I have an app running in Oculus Quest 2 and connected to ROS?

The Readme for ROS-TCP-connector doesn’t say anything about OS limitations but I saw a complain about exporting to Universal Windows Platform (Unable to build, generated messages could not find suitable override and namespace · Issue #215 · Unity-Technologies/Unity-Robotics-Hub · GitHub).

Thank you.

We don’t officially support OSes like iOS, Android or VR systems but there should be no problem running our code on those platforms and previously myriad of users have used our packages on these platforms. We would encourage you to use our packages on these platforms and in case you face any issues, you can create issues on repos’ respective GitHub pages and we would be happy to assist you.
