I want to use Nav2 for robot navigation. The robot that I am using is a skid-steer-tracked robot that does not provide reliable odometry data. I am trying to use the robot_localization package to get the odometry from the imu and then use it as an input to nav2 using a laser scanner. I am not getting any messages published on the odometry/filtered topic of the robot_localization package but I get the following message on the /diagnostics topic. Could someone please guide me on this issue?
