Can you find topic: /filtered_cloud when you run a lidar?

Hi,

In recent days, I GitHub a code which need to subscribe to /filtered_cloud. As is shown below:

ros::Subscriber sub = nh.subscribe ("filtered_cloud", 1, cloud_cb);

But I don't find this topic when I run Turtlebot3 simulation. When I use Turtlebot3 robot before, not the simulation, I noticed that the entity's topics are different from those of simulation.

My question is that, when you use the entity, can you find the topic: /filtered_cloud ? Could you plz help me to check:

rostopic find /filtered_cloud 

Thank you very much. So inconvenient at home. :-(

how do you run the Turtlebot3 simulation? Also which topics related to the laser scan/point cloud do you get? Maybe the topics are there but with some custom prefixes.
