ROS Toolbox provides an interface to connect to existing ROS 2 networks, or create ROS 2 networks for desktop simulation and hardware interface with MATLAB and Simulink. You can create or access ROS 2 nodes and establish communication between them using subscribers and publishers. You can also create or access ROS 2 parameters and transformations on the network. For more information about ROS 2 nodes, see Connect to a ROS 2 Network.

You can create or access ROS 2 service servers that can receive requests from service clients to perform tasks and provide responses. For more information about ROS 2 services, see Call and Provide ROS 2 Services.

You can also create and access ROS 2 action servers that can receive goal execution request from action clients, and provide feedback during the goal execution process.
