To operate this package, both `apriltag_ros` and `lidartag` packages are required. The package's launcher will automatically initiate these dependencies. The `apriltag_ros` package detects apriltag markers from an image and outputs the detection results. Conversely, the `lidartag` package detects lidartag markers and outputs its detection results.
