Adding Rviz Marker as obstacle in Costmap2d

Hello there, I am using a cylinder Rviz Marker to represent an obstacle in the rviz scene. I want to make an autonomous robot that can detect this obstacle and avoid this. I followed the Nav2d Tutorial and I am doing similar things like Tutorial 2 whereby the robot only reads the walls as obstacles but it does not read the Rviz Markers. Is there a way I can make it avoid the Rviz Marker or any other way I can simulate human-like obstacles in Rviz ?

@ktiwari9 did you ever figure out how to do this?
