Porting ORB_SLAM2_CUDA to openVSLAM

Hi all

I have been trying to make openVSLAM cuda enable following the work of yunchih and I have seen some discussion here #261.

I tried to put together the work of ORB_SLAM2 CUDA at my repro. It seems like the major change is only in orb_extractor.cc file.

However, when I ran the program, I got this error.

OpenCV Error: Gpu API call (an illegal memory access was encountered) in download, file /home/jedsadakorn/git/opencv-3.4.0/modules/core/src/cuda/gpu_mat.cu, line 260
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception'

which I believe arise from this line.

If anyone could help with the debug, I would really appreciate.

One thing that I know is if I comment line157 ~ 167.

The function gpuOrb.join() at line159 will ALWAYS be executed two times before the program terminate with the same error. gpuOrb.join(descriptors_at_level);

If I change line 153 from gpuOrb.launch_async(blurred_image, keypts_at_level.data(), keypts_at_level.size()); to gpuOrb.launch_async(blurred_image, keypts.data(), keypts.size()); The above error disappeared. However, it could not track the feature (which is expected).

My opinion is that it is probably something about keypts and keypts_at_level that behave differently from ORB_SLAM2 code (I used the exact same code (?)). If any of you would like me to try any idea to debug, please let me know.

TIA
