2D-3D pose tracking

Monocular Camera Localization in Prior LiDAR Maps with 2D-3D Line Correspondences

The video demos can be seen: Corridors EuRoC

cla cla

2D-3D pose tracking is a real-time camera localization framework with prior LiDAR maps. It detects geometric 3D lines offline from LiDAR maps and use AFM to detect 2D lines from video sequences online. With the pose prediction from VIO, we can efficiently obtain coarse 2D-3D line correspondences. After that, camera poses and 2D-3D correspondences are iteratively optimized by minimizing the projection error of correspondences and rejecting outliers. The 2D-3D correspondences greatly reduce the pose drifts of VIO system without using visual-revisiting loop closure. This code runs on Linux.

1. Prerequisites

1.1 Ubuntu and ROS. Ubuntu 18.04. ROS Melodic.

1.2 python 2.7, CUDA and pytorch. Follow CUDA Installation and pytorch installation.

1.3. Ceres Solver. Follow Ceres Installation

1.4 VINS-Mono Follow VINS-Mono

2. Build AFM line detection

The afm 2D line detection package is modified by the original afm_cvpr2019. Independent conda testing is strongly recommend.

    cd catkin_ws/src/afm/scripts
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    pip install torch torchvision
    cd lib
    make
    cd ../../../../
    catkin_make
    source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

3. 3D line detection

We follow 3D line detection to detect geometric 3D lines and the results are included.

4. Build VINS-Mono on ROS

Clone the repository and catkin_make:

    cd ~/catkin_ws/src
    git clone https://github.com/HKUST-Aerial-Robotics/VINS-Mono.git
    cd ../
    catkin_make
    source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

5. Testing On EuRoC dataset

Download EuRoC MAV Dataset. Although it contains stereo cameras, we only use one camera. Before testing, copy the new vins_rviz_config.rviz file to VINS-Mono\config path. Change the output frequency of VINS-Mono VINS-Mono\config\euroc\euroc_config.yaml to 15 Hz freq: 15.

Open four terminals, launch the vins_estimator, map_fusion, rviz and play the bag file respectively. Take V1_02_medium.bag for example

    roslaunch vins_estimator euroc.launch 
    roslaunch map_fusion euroc_tracking.launch
    roslaunch vins_estimator vins_rviz.launch
    rosbag play YOUR_PATH_TO_DATASET/V1_02_medium.bag

6. Testing on RealSense D435i data

Download Corridors data

To run VINS-Mono on this data,

    cp src/2D-3D-pose-tracking/VINS-Mono-config/realsense_infra1_config.yaml src/VINS-Mono/config/realsense/
    cp src/2D-3D-pose-tracking/VINS-Mono-config/realsense_infra.launch src/VINS-Mono/vins_estimator/launch/

Then,

    roslaunch vins_estimator realsense_infra.launch 
    roslaunch map_fusion realsense_tracking.launch
    roslaunch vins_estimator vins_rviz.launch
    rosbag play YOUR_PATH_TO_DATASET/corridors.bag
