LVI-SAM

This repository contains code for a lidar-visual-inertial odometry and mapping system, which combines the advantages of LIO-SAM and Vins-Mono at a system level.

Dependency

  • ROS (Tested with kinetic and melodic)
  • gtsam (Georgia Tech Smoothing and Mapping library)
    wget -O ~/Downloads/gtsam.zip https://github.com/borglab/gtsam/archive/4.0.2.zip
    cd ~/Downloads/ && unzip gtsam.zip -d ~/Downloads/
    cd ~/Downloads/gtsam-4.0.2/
    mkdir build && cd build
    cmake -DGTSAM_BUILD_WITH_MARCH_NATIVE=OFF ..
    sudo make install -j4
    
  • Ceres (C++ library for modeling and solving large, complicated optimization problems)
    sudo apt-get install -y libgoogle-glog-dev
    sudo apt-get install -y libatlas-base-dev
    wget -O ~/Downloads/ceres.zip https://github.com/ceres-solver/ceres-solver/archive/1.14.0.zip

Datasets

The datasets used in the paper can be downloaded from Google Drive. The data-gathering sensor suite includes: Velodyne VLP-16 lidar, FLIR BFS-U3-04S2M-CS camera, MicroStrain 3DM-GX5-25 IMU, and Reach RS+ GPS.

Note that the images in the provided bag files are in compressed format. So a decompression command is added at the last line of launch/module_sam.launch. If your own bag records the raw image data, please comment this line out.
