LIO_SAM_6AXIS is an open-source SLAM project based on the project LIO_SAM that has been modified to support a wider range of sensors. It includes support for a 6-axis IMU and low-cost GNSS, making it easier to adapt for your own sensor setup.
LIO_SAM_6AXIS includes the following features:
- Support for a 6-axis IMU: This allows you to use orientation information in state estimation, improving the accuracy of your results.
- Support for low-cost GNSS: By eliminating the need to adapt for the robot_localization node, this feature makes it easier to integrate GNSS into your SLAM system.
- GPS constraint visualization: This feature helps with debugging by allowing you to visualize the GPS constraints that are being used in the optimization.
- Compatible with a range of lidars: LIO_SAM_6AXIS can be adapted to work with a range of lidars, including popular models like the VLP-16 ，Pandar32 and Ouster OS-1.
- Easy to adapt: With minor changes to the original code, LIO_SAM_6AXIS can be adapted to work with your own sensors and lidars.
To get started with LIO_SAM_6AXIS, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/JokerJohn/LIO_SAM_6AXIS.git- Install the dependencies:
cd LIO_SAM_6AXIS
catkin build- Launch the roslaunch file for your sensor setup:
# set your bag_path here
roslaunch lio_sam_6axis test_vlp16.launchFor more information on how to use LIO_SAM_6AXIS, see the video tutorial and documentation.
- finally, save your point cloud map.
# map is in the LIO-SAM-6AXIS/data
rosservice call /lio_sam_6axis/save_map
- for docker support.
Dockerfile is for people who don't want to break their own environment.
# please cd the folder which have Dockerfile first, approximately 10mins based on your internet and CPU
docker build -t zhangkin/lio_sam_6axis .
docker run -it --net=host --gpus all --name lio_sam_6axis zhangkin/lio_sam_6axis /bin/zsh
# OR -v to link the folder from your computer into container (your_computer_loc:container_loc)
docker run -it --net=host --gpus all --name lio_sam_6axis -v /home/kin/bag_data:/home/xchu/data/ramlab_dataset zhangkin/lio_sam_6axis /bin/zsh
# in the container
catkin build
source devel/setup.zsh
# with dataset download and linked ==> please see more usage in previous section
roslaunch lio_sam_6axis ouster128_indoors.launch
# 对于在内地的同学，可以换源`dockerhub`后，直接拉取：
docker pull zhangkin/lio_sam_6axisThe documentation for LIO_SAM_6AXIS can be found in the doc directory of the repository. It includes instructions on how to adapt the code for your own sensors and lidars.
Here are the latest updates to LIO_SAM_6AXIS:
- Remove Gpstools and use libGeographic for accuracy .
- Fix bugs of saving map service
LIO_SAM_6AXIS is compatible with a range of datasets and sensor setups. To help you get started, we have included a table that lists some of the datasets and sensors that have been tested with LIO_SAM_6AXIS.
