Could you please help with this? At the same time when using the "ros2 launch yolov8_bringup yolov8.launch.py" statement did not produce any output except for an error (Package 'yolov8_bringup' not found: "package 'yolov8_bringup' not found, searching: ['/opt/ros/foxy']")

Hi @arun-venkat-23, it seems you did not use colcon build followed by source ~/ros2_ws/install/setup.bash.

I'm experiencing the same issue even after building the workspace and sourcing it.

Which message are you getting when you source your workspace and launch the file in the same terminal? I the case of your previous message Package 'yolov8_bringup' not found: "package 'yolov8_bringup' not found, searching: ['/opt/ros/foxy']", I think you are not sourcing the workspace in the terminal where you try to run yolov8.launch.py.
