Sensor fusion unit2

in unit 2 in sensor fusion course why when i am using both imu and odom in the config file i only get odom/filtered shouldn’t i also have and imu/filtered topic ?

Hii,

Actually EKF localization algorithm produces two filtered topics :

odometry/filtered` ([nav_msgs/Odometry]

accel/filtered` ([geometry_msgs/AccelWithCovarianceStamped] if enabled

YOU can find more information about this here → (geometry_msgs/AccelWithCovarianceStamped Documentation))

so, yes you are correct as imu is used to know the robot’s linear acceleration.

Thank you,
