Your physical robot's sensors probably have ROS drivers written for them (e.g. a ROS node that connects to the sensors, populates data into messages, and publishes them for your robot to use) that follow the standard interface in the ``sensor_msgs`` package. The ``sensor_msgs`` package makes it easy for you to use many different sensors from different manufacturers. General software packages like Nav2 can then can read these standardized messages and perform tasks independent of the sensor hardware. On simulated robots such as ``sam_bot``, Gazebo has sensor plugins which also publish their information following the ``sensor_msgs`` package.
