Gazebo no messages from sensor
I'm just trying to get a basic ROS-controlled gazebo sim with differential wheels and lidar. I have followed the gazebo tutorial and am launching from this test.launch :
<launch> <include file="$(find gazebo_ros)/launch/empty_world.launch"> <arg name="world_name" value="/home/charles/Dropbox/catkin_base/src/gazebo_ibex_gazebo/launch/ibex.world"/> </include> </launch>
Then my world file has, <include> <uri>model://my_robot</uri> </include>
And my_robot.sdf has <include> <uri>model://hokuyo</uri> <pose>0.2 0 0.2 0 0 0</pose> </include> <joint name="hokuyo_joint" type="revolute"> <child>hokuyo::link</child> <parent>chassis</parent> <axis> <xyz>0 0 1</xyz> <limit> <upper>0</upper> <lower>0</lower> </limit> </axis> </joint>
However when I run with roslaunch test.launch
I see gazebo and the robot, but there are no Hokuyo messages appearing in rostopic. Any suggestions what I'm doing wrong?
(I have tried editing hokuyo/model.sdf to <plugin name="laser" filename="libgazeboroslaser.so"> <topicname>/hokuyo_laser</topicname> <framename>map</framename> </plugin> but makes no difference)
