Question about nodename in TF (IN ROS documentation, link attached)


In this tutorial, the node name they define is ‘turtle_tf_broadcaster’ but while launching the node in the launch file, they use ‘turtle1_tf_broadcaster’ and ‘turtle2_tf_broadcaster’? I understand that they are launching the node twice to launch with different parameters, but how did they change the node name?

Hello @jibran.university,

It is changed in the launch file, with the name parameter.

Best,
