Sotp publishing tf /odom from Gazebo

Hi,

I've asked a related question when I needed to put gmapping, laser_scan_matcher and stageros working together. The problem was that but stageros and laser_scan_matcher publish the odom->base_footprint. I solved the problem by going to the stageros.cpp and stop the publish of the transform.

But know I want to make a more evolved simulation including IMU and Cameras and wanted to try Gazebo, but the same problem occurs and I cannot find where modified Gazebo to stop publishing.

Has anyone had the same problem???

Thanks in advance

P.S. I think will look in the Pr2 simulation perhaps there they have a similiar problem

The quickest way to do this is to remap the topic to an unused one.

Tully's way is quicker, but if you are curious where the transform comes from, I believe the pr2 odometry mechanism controller is responsible for publishing the base_footprint-odom transform. You can also edit pr2 controller configuration for gazebo and disable the base_odometry controller from loading in pr2_default_controllers.launch.

similarly for pr2, just do the same for pr2 controller configuration.
