Installation

Dependency

  • ROS noetic
  • ceres-solver
    $ mkdir ~/dependencies_ws
    $ cd ~/dependencies_ws/ 
    $ wget -O ~/dependencies_ws/ceres.zip https://github.com/ceres-solver/ceres-solver/archive/1.14.0.zip 
    $ apt-get install -y cmake libgoogle-glog-dev libgflags-dev libatlas-base-dev libeigen3-dev unzip libsuitesparse-dev 
    $ cd ~/dependencies_ws/ && unzip ceres.zip -d ~/dependencies_ws/ 
    $ cd /dependencies_ws/ceres-solver-1.14.0 
    $ mkdir ceres-bin && cd ceres-bin 
    $ cmake ..    
    $ sudo make install -j4

    $ wget -O gtsam.zip https://github.com/borglab/gtsam/archive/4.1.0.zip
    $ unzip gtsam.zip -d ~/dependencies_ws/
    $ cd ~/dependencies_ws/gtsam-4.1.0
    $ mkdir build && cd build
    $ cmake -DGTSAM_BUILD_WITH_MARCH_NATIVE=OFF ..
    $ sudo make install -j4
    
  • DBOW3
    $ cd ~/dependencies_ws/
    $ git clone https://github.com/rmsalinas/DBow3.git
    $ cd DBow3/ && mkdir build && cd build
    $ cmake ..
    $ make 
    $ sudo make install
    

Compile and Launch

  • Create workspace

    mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws/src
    
  • Clone the project

    cd ~/catkin_ws/src/
    git clone https://github.com/SnowCarter/Intensity_based_LiDAR_SLAM.git
  • Go to the project workspace directory

    cd ../
  • Compile

    source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash
    catkin_make
  • Launch

    source devel/setup.bash 
    roslaunch intensity_feature_tracker spot.launch rviz:=1
  • Play bag file

    rosbag play xxx.bag --clock
    

Docker support

Building

  • Create workspace

    mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws/src
    
  • Clone the project

    cd ~/catkin_ws/src/
    git clone https://github.com/SnowCarter/Intensity_based_LiDAR_SLAM.git
  • Go to the project directory

    cd Intensity_based_LiDAR_SLAM/
  • Build docker image

    docker build . -t intensity_lidar_slam
    

Launch

  • Launch docker images with intensity Lidar SLAM (Terminal 1)
    docker run --rm -it --net=host --privileged intensity_lidar_slam:latest /bin/bash -i -c 'roslaunch intensity_feature_tracker spot.launch rviz:=0'
    
  • Play bag file (Terminal 2)
    rosbag play xxx.bag --clock
    
  • RVIZ (Terminal 3)
    rosrun rviz rviz -d ~/catkin_ws/src/Intensity_based_LiDAR_SLAM/launch/rviz_setting.rviz
    
  • Show spot mesh (optional):
    • rviz need to find the mesh file according to the package name, so we need to make sure this package is compiled and sourced, even you can't compile it successfully.
      cd ~/catkin_ws/
      catkin_make
      
    • in Terminal 3:
      source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
      rosrun rviz rviz -d ~/catkin_ws/src/Intensity_based_LiDAR_SLAM/launch/rviz_setting.rviz
