VINSEval

VINSEval: Evaluation Framework for Unified Testing of Consistency and Robustness of Visual-Inertial Navigation System Algorithms

Introduction

VINSEval is a unified evaluation framework to evaluate with statistical relevance the consistency and robustness of VINS algorithms in a fully automated fashion over a multitude of parameters and parameter ranges.

How to

video

For a detailed description on how to install and use the framework, please refer to our Wiki page.

Fast Installation

  1. Install all required prequesites
# UPDATE
sudo apt update
# ROS PACKAGES
export ROS_DISTRO=$(rosversion -d)
sudo apt install ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-tf \
  ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-cv-bridge \
  ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-message-filters \
  ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-image-transport \
  ros-${ROS_DISTRO}-rosbaglive
# GRAPHIC DRIVERS
sudo apt install -y libzmqpp-dev libeigen3-dev
sudo apt install -y libvulkan1 vulkan-utils gdb
# NOTE: For AMD GPUs run also sudo apt install -y mesa-vulkan-drivers
  1. Clone this repository and initialise its ROS workspace
git clone https://github.com/aau-cns/vins_eval.git vinseval_cws
# Init submodules
cd vinseval_cws
git submodule update --init --recursive --remote
# Init workspace
catkin init
echo 'source ~/vinseval_cws/devel/setup.bash' >> ~/.bashrc
# Build workspace
export ROS_DISTRO=$(rosversion -d)
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro ${ROS_DISTRO} -y

Now you can use either the provided Docker environment or build it on your system yourself. Please consult the Wiki for a detailed explanation on both install and use cases.
