Fast slam project

This repo is an implementation of the fast slam v2.0 algorithm. The goal for this implementation is versatility over, but including efficiency. This was tested with ros humble and gazebo harmonic.

Project layout

[fast_slam]

This is where the algorithm lives

[fast_slam_gz]

  • [fast_slam_gz_plugins]
    Simple gazebo plugins that publish fake landmarks in the vicinity based on the obstacle locations.

    • FakeLandmarkLines
    • FakeLandmarkPoses
    • FakeLandmarkPoints

  • [fast_slam_gz_description]
    A simple description of a differential drive robot and a simple world with arbitrary landmarks.

[fast_slam_ros]

  • [fast_slam_ros_core]
    The fast slam ros interface. It takes the fake landmarks updates the robot pose with a call to the update and broadcasts the drift correction of the diff drive odometry (map->odom transform).

  • [fast_slam_ros_msgs]
    Additional message defintions for this project. This includes lines and arrays that are not covered by standard message packages.

    • LineLandmark.msg
    • LineLandmarkArray.msg
    • LineLandmarkStamped.msg
    • PointArray.msg

  • [fast_slam_ros_visualization]
    This repo includes rviz plugins for the message descriptions.

    • LineLandmarkDisplay
    • PointArrayDisplay

Roadmap

In no particular order

  • Add support of combined association with different types of measurements
  • Keep kd tree alive for nn search, dynamically update when map tree is changing
  • Maybe replace binary tree with kd tree directly, but for localization directly for sure. see iterative dynamic kd trees
  • Add support for direct localization without map building
  • Add multithreading support for particle updates
  • Add global localization by sampling in ROI
  • Add proper motion model to the particle set
  • Add propagation without update
  • Add conditional update
  • Add a dense version using scan matching see iris lama scan-matching for efficient implementation
  • Make the ros interface dynamically switch between dense and sparse localization
