Kimera_VIO_ROS mono with euroc dataset is not working properly

[skarthikbe96]

Description:
I have installed Kimera-VIO-ROS properly on Ubuntu 20.0 ROS1 noetic. Wen I am trying to run the euroc dataset with mono setting it is not able to publish any mesh or odometry trajectory. I have attached the screenshot of the rviz output

I need to test Kimera VIO using the Intel RealSense D435i camera, configured with the mono setting. Specifically, I will be using the /camera/color/image_raw topic for the image data.

Command:

roslaunch kimera_vio_ros kimera_vio_ros_euroc_mono.launch 

rosbag play V1_01_easy.bag --clock

Console output:

roslaunch kimera_vio_ros kimera_vio_ros_euroc_mono.launch

I also am facing the same issue, why is it asking for the groundtruth
