Recently, I tried to fuse IMU & Odometry using robot_localization. I am new with ROS. So I googled the how to use robot_localization and I found an answer in ROS answer. Like the answer, I set my parameters. But when I used rviz to visualize the output data, nothing was showed in rviz. At the same time, some warnings appeared in terminal. They were :

This is my parameter yaml file:

frequency: 30
two_d_mode: true
publish_tf: true
map_frame: map
base_link_frame: base_link
world_frame: odom
odom0: odom
odom0_config: [false,  false,  false,
           false, false, false,
           true, true, false,
           false, false, true,
           false, false, false]
odom0_differential: true
odom0_relative: false
imu0: imu
imu0_config: [false, false, false,
          false,  false,  true,
          false, false, false,
          false,  false,  true,
          false,  false,  false]
imu0_differential: false
imu0_relative: true

Here is an IMU data example:

I googled the warnings and it seemed that they were the exception of tf. I have not learned how to us tf yet. I was wondering if I need to write a tf transform node to process the tranform and what is wrong in my parameters. By the way, is it ... (more)
