Is ROS/ROS2 communication supported with Speedgoat and Simulink Real-Time?

Do Speedgoat targets support ROS?

When I try to add ROS/ROS2 Publisher or Subscriber blocks to my Simulink Real-Time (SLRT) model, I get the following build error:

slros_initialize.h: No such file or directory
slros2_initialize.h: No such file or directory

It is not possible to deploy standalone ROS nodes to a Speedgoat machine, because the operating system shipping with Simulink Real-Time (SLRT) does not support ROS.

However, there is an unofficial ROS interface that can be used with SLRT and Speedgoat hardware. The De-/Serializer Blockset for SLRT is available on File Exchange and enables basic integration into ROS and ROS2 networks using UDP or Serial communication:
