SRRG2-SLAM-INTERFACES

This repository contains a single Catkin package:

1. srrg2_slam_interfaces: generic interfaces and API designed to standardize multi-cue SLAM.

This package alone is not a complete SLAM system. The following additional srrg2 packages built on top of srrg2_slam_interfaces constitute the complete pipelines:

• srrg2_laser_slam_2d: multi-cue 2D-LiDAR pipeline; it can manage multiple laser rangefinders together with wheel odometry.
• srrg2_proslam: VO pipeline (Stereo or RGB-D) that natively supports sensor offsets.

Other additional srrg2 packages:

• srrg2_executor: provides a shell interface to load, modify and run BOSS configuration file; this is the main package to run all srrg2 pipelines.
• srrg2_config_visualizer: GUI to load, edit and generate BOSS configuration file; still experimental.

To know how to build the srrg2_slam_interfaces package, please refer to the readme file in the Catkin package. If you want to build also the additional srrg2 packages, refer to the instructions in their readme files.
