This is the implementation of our paper: "Building Maps for Autonomous Navigation Using Sparse Visual SLAM Features" in IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2017. Our implementation is built on the top of the open-source stereo SLAM ORB-SLAM2. It runs in ROS （developed in version of indigo）. Eigen, OpenCV, and CGAL are needed.
The high resolution video of our submitted paper is: https://1drv.ms/v/s!ApzRxvwAxXqQmRtBPbu_Q27V5o4f (720p is recommmanded)
To run this code, complie it with ROS in linux system, and type:
rosrun light_mapping ros_stereo_kitti
It will read the configuration file in the config folder, such as KITTI05.yaml. Please adjust it accordingly to your environment.
