Can ORB SLAM 2 be used in a simulated environment such as AirSim #708

I was wondering if it is possible to apply ORB SLAM in AirSim, which runs in UnrealEngine4.

Hi we can use the AIRSIM with ROS, so within the ROS environment we can use the ORB SLAM as well.

@ShettyHarapanahalli How did you calibrate the camera?

@ShettyHarapanahalli @ivannson Can this be implemented on AirSim without ROS? I am planning to use the PythonClient to implement it

@kritikagovindaraj Hi, I don't think I used ROS. My purpose was fairly simplistic, so I recorded a video from AirSim, and used it as a test input into ORB SLAM 2, but it wasn't running live. I think you should be able to do it without ROS, but using ROS might make it easier.
