MATLAB: Am I not able to find the ROS I/O package previously available on MATLAB Central

Question

Previously I was using MATLAB ROS I/O Package to have an interaction between MATLAB and ROS. But I cannot find this package anymore. Why is this?

Answer 1

The ROS I/O package, which was available on File Exchange previously has been removed due to the release of the new product, "Robotics System Toolbox", released in MATLAB R2015a. The new toolbox has the capability to interact with ROS. So, there is no method to have an interaction between ROS and MATLAB before R2015a.
