li_slam_ros2

This package is a combination of lidarslam_ros2 and the LIO-SAM IMU composite method.

See LIO-SAM for IMU composites, otherwise see lidarslam_ros2.

Walking dataset(casual_walk.bag)

Yellow path: path without loop closure, Green path: modified path, Red: map

Campus dataset (large) demo(big_loop.bag)

Yellow path: path without loop closure, Red: map (the 10x10 grids in size of 10m × 10m)

Green path: modified path with loop closure, Red: map

requirement to build

You need ndt_omp_ros2 and gtsam for scan-matcher

clone

cd ~/ros2_ws/src
git clone --recursive https://github.com/rsasaki0109/li_slam_ros2

gtsam install

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:borglab/gtsam-release-4.1
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libgtsam-dev libgtsam-unstable-dev

build

cd ~/ros2_ws
rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -yr
colcon build --cmake-args -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

Walking dataset demo(casual_walk.bag)

The optimization pipeline in Lidar Inertial SLAM were taken from LIO-SAM.

(Note: See the LIO-SAM repository for detailed settings regarding IMU.
The other thing to note is that the speed will diverge if the voxel_grid_size is large.

demo data(ROS1) in LIO-SAM
https://github.com/TixiaoShan/LIO-SAM
To use ros1 rosbag , use rosbags.
The Velodyne VLP-16 was used in this data.

pose_graph.g2o and map.pcd are saved in loop closing or using the following service call.
