Summary

First pass at sandwich boat model and multi-boat support. Uses the CoRa model as the foundation for the general structure.

Depends on vrx

To Test

roslaunch sandwich_gazebo sydney_sandwich.launch

This will launch two boat models. The joystick commands only affect the boat whose namespace is that of the default namespace args in the launch file.

Current Issues

  • Steering for sandwich and CoRa not as expected
  • Model is scaled up 10x as changing mass values causes the USV dynamics plugin to fail

I was able to run this PR using the setup described here: https://github.com/Field-Robotics-Lab/optical_swarm/wiki/workspace_setup

I'd like to have @matthewheubach do the review/approval of the PR. Good practice.

I was able to run the launch file as described. Except for known issues #2 and #3, I did not have any problems with the launch file or sandwich boat models.
