Basalt

For more information see https://vision.in.tum.de/research/vslam/basalt

This project contains tools for:

• Camera, IMU and motion capture calibration.
• Visual-inertial odometry and mapping.
• Simulated environment to test different components of the system.

Some reusable components of the system are availble as a separate header-only library (Documentation).

There is also a Github mirror of this project to enable easy forking.

Installation

APT installation for Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 (Fast)

Set up keys

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 0D97B6C9

Add the repository to the sources list. On Ubuntu 18.04 run:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://packages.usenko.eu/ubuntu bionic main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/basalt.list'

On Ubuntu 16.04 run:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://packages.usenko.eu/ubuntu xenial main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/basalt.list'

Update the Ubuntu package index and install Basalt:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install basalt

Source installation for Ubuntu 18.04 and MacOS >= 10.11 El Capitan

Clone the source code for the project and build it. For MacOS you should have Homebrew installed.

git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/VladyslavUsenko/basalt.git
cd basalt
./scripts/install_deps.sh
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
make -j8

NOTE: It is possible to compile the code on Ubuntu 16.04, but you need to install cmake-3.10 or higher and gcc-7. See corresponding Dockerfile as an example.
