ROS wrapper for distributed pose graph optimization

DPGO_ROS

Introduction

This repository implements a ROS wrapper for the DPGO library. Example results on the Sphere2500 dataset:

Dependencies

Inside a catkin workspace, please clone the following repositories. Use the default branch unless mentioned otherwise below.

• catkin_simple
• pose_graph_tools: please use the feature/multirobot branch.
• dpgo: core C++ library for distributed PGO.
• dpgo_ros: this repository.

Building the package

Build with catkin:

catkin build

To run a demo:

# source workspace
source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

# run demo on example g2o dataset
roslaunch dpgo_ros DPGO.launch
