Turtlebot2 keyboard teleop does not launch, I have no clue why. Here is launch file for keyboard_teleop.

  <!-- turtlebot_teleop_key already has its own built in velocity smoother -->
  <node pkg="turtlebot_teleop" type="turtlebot_teleop_key" name="turtlebot_teleop_keyboard"  output="screen">
    <param name="scale_linear" value="0.5" type="double"/>
    <param name="scale_angular" value="1.5" type="double"/>
    <remap from="turtlebot_teleop_keyboard/cmd_vel" to="cmd_vel_mux/input/teleop"/>
  </node>
</launch>

It runs but when I inout the commands, "i,u,j...etc" the robot doesnt move

@Asad775889 This is what I get when I launch bring up and teleop and rostopic list

/cmd_vel_mux/input/teleop
/diagnostics
/diagnostics_agg
/diagnostics_toplevel_state
/joint_states
/laptop_charge
/rosout
/rosout_agg
/tf
/tf_static

I rostopic hz /cmd_vel_mux/input/teleop

turtlebot@CPR-TBT-1415:~$ rostopic hz /cmd_vel_mux/input/teleop
subscribed to [/cmd_vel_mux/input/teleop]
average rate: 9.935
    min: 0.101s max: 0.101s std dev: 0.00006s window: 9

    min: 0.100s max: 0.101s std dev: 0.00017s window: 29

In the teleop terminal when I input speed commands from keyboard, I get results, the robot doesn't move but I get velocities.

Control Your Turtlebot!

What I can conclude from these images that may be something is wrong with your hardware. This was once happened and it was an issue with the hardware. https://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/p..., 3.3.1 section , test the turtlebot3 , this is what it looks like in turtlebot3 , not sure about turtlebot2, try testing your hardware. because apparently, it look fine as far as ROS is concerned.

This launch file doesn't work alone. You need to launch other required files as well. such as in turtlebot3 ,you have to run, roslaunch turtlebot3_bringup turtlebot3_robot.launch. if you can further elaborate your workflow then it might be helpful since this snippet alone shows nothing,

@Asad775889 I already do that, that's not the problem.

@Asad775889 Not sure what you mean by work flow, as in,what shows up in my terminal when I run files?

distro ( 2022-04-11 03:42:03 -0500 )edit

Yes please. and echo topic list, and specially look what cmd_vel topic is publishing.
