VIW-Fusion is an optimization-based viusla-inertial-wheel fusion odometry, which is developed as a part of my master thesis. Features:
- multiple sensors support (stereo cameras+IMU+wheel / mono camera+IMU+wheel)
- wheel enhanced visual-inertial initialization
- online spatial calibration (transformation between camera, IMU and wheel)
- online wheel intrinsic calibration
- online temporal calibration (time offset between camera, IMU and wheel)
- plane constraint
- Feb 25, 2023 - Released my thesis in chinese
We tested Mono VIWO in scenes with drastic changes in light, and the parameters between different scenes remained unchanged. The video is below, if you can't access youtube, please try bilibili:
We compare the VIWO with Mono VIO. The trajectory estimated by Mono VIO is completely different from the real trajectory, while the trajectory estimated by Mono VIWO is in good agreement with the real trajectory.
We align the trajectory with the entrance door and exit door to further compare VIWO and Stereo VIO, the trajectory estimated by Mono VIWO is also more reasonable.
