SDF <-> USD connector

[ahcorde]

This issue is meant to track the progress of the connector between Ignition Gazebo and Issac Sim SDF which is currently a work in progress.

Ignition -> Issac Sim

• Lights Added light to threadsafe branch #10
• Sensor Added sensors: camera, lidar and imu #12
• Collision Added collision to geometries #13
• Joints: Added fixed and revolute joints (Ignition -> issacsim) #14
• Instructions Improved readme instructions #15

TODO

• Q/A and testing

Issac Sim -> Ignition

• Remove, add and move models Connector: IssacSim -> Ignition #16

TODO

• Joints
• Lights
• Sensors
• Visual

Additional context

• Threadsafe architecture Refactor architecture to be more threadsafe #7

Hybrid simulation

In this PR #17 I added some instructions to run a Hybrid simulation

This demo explains how to use the hybrid simulation. In particular will follow this steps:

• Launch a world containing a ROS 2-controlled robot.
• Enable hybrid simulation, sharing the workload between Ignition and Isaac Sim
  • Diffdrive control will happen in Ignition
  • Sensors reading (lidar and camera) will happen in Issac Sim
• Control the robot from ROS 2. In this particular case with nav2
• Visualize data from both simulators in RVIZ
