Results

Mapping results for MH_05_difficult in the EuRoC datasets All mapping results for the EuRoC datasets is available in here

ALVIO Previous work UV-SLAM

Installation

1. Prerequisites

2. Build

cd ~/<your_workspace>/src
git clone --recursive https://github.com/url-kaist/UV-SLAM.git
cd ..
catkin_make
source ~/<your_workspace>/devel/setup.bash

3. Trouble shooting

  • If you have installed VINS-mono before, remove the common packages. Example: benchmark_publisher, camera_model, etc

Run on EuRoC datasets

Download EuRoC MAV Dataset. Open three terminals and launch the vins_estimator, rviz, and play the bag file, respectively.

roslaunch uv_slam euroc.launch
roslaunch uv_slam vins_rviz.launch
rosbag play <dataset>

Acknowledgements

We use VINS-Mono as our baseline code. Thanks Dr. Qin Tong, Prof. Shen etc very much. For line feature extraction, we use ELSED. For vanishing point extraction, we use J-linkage and 2-line exhaustive searching method. This work was financially supported in part by Institute of Information & communications Technology Planning & Evaluation (IITP) grant funded by the Korea government(MSIT) (No. 2021-0-00230, development of real·virtual environmental analysis based adaptive interaction technology) and in part by the Defense Challengeable Future Technology Program of Agency for Defense Development, Republic of Korea. The students are supported by Korea Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT) as "Innovative Talent Education Program for Smart City" and BK21 FOUR.
