## Specialized Transports: Images

While the standard `ros_gz_bridge` handles most ROS 2 message types, Gazebo provides a specialized package optimized specifically for heavy camera sensor data:

* **[`ros_gz_image`](https://github.com/gazebosim/ros_gz/tree/ros2/ros_gz_image):** Provides a unidirectional bridge for images from Gazebo to ROS 2. It utilizes `image_transport` to publish compressed and uncompressed image streams efficiently.

For performance-critical simulations involving vision or cameras, using this dedicated package is heavily recommended over passing large image arrays through the standard bridge.
