I'm trying to develop an robot application. But I don't have GPU locally. So I created an EC2 instance, and tried to run gazebo on it. However, it always fails with the following error. Maybe it's because I'm using VNC to connect to the server.

Did anyone do that before (running gazebo and ros on AWS and connect to it through remote desktop)? It it possible if I don't have local GPU and want to develop an ros application on cloud?

CodePudding user response：

For robotics programming, including ROS1, ROS2, Gazibo, etc, AWS provides managed services called AWS RoboMaker:

AWS RoboMaker is a service that makes it easy to create robotics applications at scale. AWS RoboMaker extends the Robot Operating System (ROS) framework with cloud services.

It supports a number of robotics applications, such as Gazebo:

Gazebo (versions 9 and 11): Tool to simulate robots in an environment.
