Volumetric 3D Mapping in Real-Time on a CPU

This code implements the approach for real-time 3D mapping on a CPU as described in the following research paper:

http://vision.in.tum.de/_media/spezial/bib/steinbruecker_etal_icra2014.pdf

Volumetric 3D Mapping in Real-Time on a CPU (F. Steinbruecker, J. Sturm, D. Cremers), In Int. Conf. on Robotics and Automation, 2014.

Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/tum-vision/fastfusion.git`

$ cd fastfusion

$ cmake .

$ make

Preparation of the data

The software takes a text file as input which contains per file

  • the camera pose
  • the depth image filename
  • the color image filename

You can either generate such a file yourself (e.g., by running Christan Kerl's DVO SLAM:

http://vision.in.tum.de/data/software/dvo

available as open source on our homepage) or you can download sequences from the TUM RGB-D benchmark:

http://vision.in.tum.de/data/datasets/rgbd-dataset/

For simplicity, we take a pre-recorded sequence from the TUM RGB-D benchmark.

$ mkdir ~/data

$ cd ~/data

$ wget http://vision.in.tum.de/rgbd/dataset/freiburg3/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household.tgz

$ tar xvzf rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household.tgz

Now we need to generate the text file. For this, we use the associate.py tool from the RGB-D benchmark website. We need to run it twice, as we join the camera poses, the depth image list and the color image list into a single file:

$ cd ~/fastfusion/

$ ./associate.py ~/data/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/groundtruth.txt ~/data/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/depth.txt > tmp.txt

$ ./associate.py tmp.txt ~/data/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/rgb.txt > ~/data/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/associate.txt

The resulting text file should look as follows:

$ head ~/data/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/associate.txt
1341847980.790000 -0.6832 2.6909 1.7373 0.0003 0.8617 -0.5072 -0.0145 1341847980.786879 depth/1341847980.786879.png 1341847980.786856 rgb/1341847980.786856.png

[..]

Running the code

$ ./bin/onlinefusion ~/data/rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/associate.txt --thread-fusion

After some debugging output on the console, a window with a 3D viewer should open. To start the reconstruction process, press "S".

If you run the program for the first time, press and hold the CTRL key and turn your scroll wheel. This is only needed once to "free" the camera viewpoint. After this, you can pan (right click) and rotate (left click) the view as you wish using your mouse.
