ROS package for the Perception (Sensor Processing, Detection, Tracking and Evaluation) of the KITTI Vision Benchmark
Sticking to this folder structure is highly recommended:
~ # Home directory
├── catkin_ws # Catkin workspace
│ ├── src # Source folder
│ └── SARosPerceptionKitti # Repo
├── kitti_data # Dataset
│ ├── 0012 # Demo scenario 0012
│ │ └── synchronized_data.bag # Synchronized ROSbag file
1) Install ROS and create a catkin workspace in your home directory:
mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws/src
2) Clone this repository into the catkin workspace's source folder (src) and build it:
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/appinho/SARosPerceptionKitti.git
cd ~/catkin_ws
catkin_make
source devel/setup.bash
3) Download a preprocessed scenario and unzip it into a separate kitti_data
directory, also stored under your home directory:
mkdir ~/kitti_data && cd ~/kitti_data/
mv ~/Downloads/0012.zip .
unzip 0012.zip
rm 0012.zip
1) Launch one of the following ROS nodes to perform and visualize the pipeline (Sensor Processing -> Object Detection -> Object Tracking) step-by-step:
source devel/setup.bash
roslaunch sensor_processing sensor_processing.launch home_dir:=/home/YOUR_USERNAME
roslaunch detection detection.launch home_dir:=/home/YOUR_USERNAME
roslaunch tracking tracking.launch home_dir:=/home/YOUR_USERNAME
Without assigning any of the abovementioned parameters the demo scenario 0012 is replayed at 20% of its speed with a 3 second delay so RViz has enough time to boot up.
2) Write the results to file and evaluate them:
roslaunch evaluation evaluation.launch home_dir:=/home/YOUR_USERNAME
cd ~/catkin_ws/src/SARosPerceptionKitti/benchmark/python
python evaluate_tracking.py
