Details of changes between the different versions.
-
Changed OpenCV dynamic matrices to static matrices to speed up the code.
-
Capability to measure running time of the system threads.
-
Compatibility with OpenCV 4.0 (Requires at least OpenCV 3.0)
-
Fixed minor bugs.
-
RGB-D compatibility, the RGB-D examples have been adapted to the new version.
-
Kitti and TUM dataset compatibility, these examples have been adapted to the new version.
-
ROS compatibility, updated the old references in the code to work with this version.
-
Config file parser, the YAML file contains the session configuration, a wrong parametrization may break the execution without any information to solve it. This version parses the file to read all the fields and give a proper answer if one of the fields have been wrongly deffined or does not exist.
-
Fixed minor bugs.
Initial release. It has these capabilities:
-
Multiple-Maps capabilities, it is able to handle multiple maps in the same session and merge them when a common area is detected with a seamless fussion.
-
Inertial sensor, the IMU initialization takes 2 seconds to achieve a scale error less than 5% and it is reffined in the next 10 seconds until it is around 1%. Inertial measures are integrated at frame rate to estimate the scale, gravity and velocity in order to improve the visual features detection and make the system robust to temporal occlusions.
-
Fisheye sensor, the fisheye sensors are now fully supported in monocular and stereo.
