I am trying to run ORB SLAM on Ubuntu 180.04 and ROS Melodic. Installations were done with no issue as such. However, when running the Example launch file, following output appears:

`
yatharth@yatharth:~/major_project/orb-slam$ roslaunch ORB_SLAM ExampleGroovyOrNewer.launch
... logging to /home/yatharth/.ros/log/d2532144-2075-11ec-951c-94659cdf0fd9/roslaunch-yatharth-11255.log
Checking log directory for disk usage. This may take a while.

Done checking log file disk usage. Usage is <1GB.

RViz pops up but no data is being received as the screen stays blank. How can I mitigate this issue?

TIA!
