Some examples of integration between MORSE and ROS in human-robot interaction context.	Using ROS RVIZ vizualisation tool to display the video stream of a simulated camera
Here, a robot builds a 2.5D terrain model map from simulated stereo-cameras, and uses it to navigate.	MORSE can take care of navigation if you do not want to manage this part.
MORSE can be used to test human-robot interaction scenarii, where a human is controlled as in a video game.	Several robots following each others. Each robot streams its camera, here with YARP.
