How do you config Darknet_Ros (yolo) to see a camera topic?

I have yolo running on a server and the robot publishing a usb camera topic /usb_cam/image_raw - i am able to see the image in rviz, but I get a continuous "waiting for image" message from the darknet_ros package after i configure the ros.yml file to subscribe to the same topic. I tried running all the launch files with no success. Im not using a GPU, yet - I was just testing with a CPU but it cant seem to subscribe to the image topic.

Thanks for your help. The git repo doesn't seem to be responding to issues.

I would recommend using rosnode info <node_name> on both yolo and the camera node, to confirm they are on the same topic and namespace.

@PeteBlackerThe3rdrosnode info /usb_cam shows no subscribers: Subscriptions: None but /darknet_ros shows /usb_cam/image_raw [sensor_msgs/Image] in subscriptions

/usb_cam and /usb_cam/image_raw are different topic names. You will have to remap the topic on one of these nodes so that they are connected.

you said rosnode above. I'm confused.

@cerebraidad I'm having the same problem. Did you solve yours?
