- Our incrementally simultaneous odometry and mapping results on the Newer College dataset and the KITTI dataset sequence 00.
- The maps are dense with a form of mesh, the red line indicates the odometry results.
- We use the same network without training to prove the ability of generalization of our design.
Overview of our method. Our method is based on our neural SDF and composed of three main components:
- Neural odometry takes the pre-processed scan and optimizes the pose via back projecting the queried neural SDF;
- Neural mapping jointly optimizes the voxel embeddings map and pose while selecting the key-scans;
- Key-scans refined map returns SDF value and the final mesh is reconstructed by marching cube.
The reconstructed maps
The qualitative result of our odometry mapping on the KITTI dataset. From left upper to right bottom, we list the results of sequences 00, 01, 03, 04, 05, 09, 10.
The odometry results
The qualitative results of our odometry on the KITTI dataset. From left to right, we list the results of sequences 00, 01, 03, 04, 05, 07, 09, 10. The dashed line corresponds to the ground truth and the blue line to our odometry method.
