Simulatenous Localization & Mapping (SLAM)

SLAM with DreamVu PAL

Please follow the instructions given below on any of the Nvidia Jetson embedded boards with Jetpack 4.4.1 to install the software.

Step 1. Clone the repository

sudo apt-get install git-lfs
git clone -b PAL --single-branch https://github.com/DreamVu/SLAM.git
cd SLAM
git lfs pull

Step 2. Installing Dependencies

Confirm the following dependencies. These are must have to proceed further

Jetpack 4.4.1
CUDA enabled OpenCV 4.4.0 and OpenCV Contrib 4.4.0 libraries.

Follow these steps to install the required OpenCV dependencies.

 cd installations
 chmod +x ./*.sh
 sudo ./opencv.sh

Python 3.6 libraries (pytorch, torchvision, numpy, PIL, etc.)

Step 3. Installing SLAM

  cd installations
  chmod +x ./*.sh
  sudo ./install.sh arg1 arg2

arg1: It can be either 0, 1 or can be skipped. On selecting 1, installation will build the whole software based on the particular Nvidia Jetson architecture and will enable higher performance. This may take a few hours to complete the installation. On selecting 0, it will quickly build the software by using some of the pre-configured libraries provided. If arg1 is skipped, then arg2 must also be skipped.
arg2: If the arg1 is 1, then the second argument takes in the amount of RAM the process will use during the build of the software in MBs. Following are the recommended values for different Nvidia Jetson architectures. For Jetson Xavier NX arg2: 3500 For Jetson Xavier AGX arg2: 8000 For Jetson Nano arg2: 1000

Once complete please reboot the system.

Step 4. Installing Camera Data File

The data files are delivered along with the purchase of the PAL camera. In case you have not received them, please request for the files by filling out a form
