Boston Dynamics Spot Robot
ORBSLAM3 integration with Boston Dynamics Spot, utilizing onboard cameras for robust visual SLAM in complex indoor environments with real-time localization.
Description
This project combines the advanced visual SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) capabilities of ORBSLAM3 with Boston Dynamics' agile quadruped robot, Spot. The integration aims to enhance Spot's ability to navigate and map complex indoor environments with high accuracy and efficiency.
Project Details
ORBSLAM3, known for its robust performance in various scenarios, is adapted to work seamlessly with Spot's onboard sensors cameras. This integration allows Spot to construct a map of its surroundings and localize itself in real-time, even in challenging conditions such as low-light environments or areas with repetitive features.
Key features of this integration include:
1. Real-time 6-DoF pose estimation: Enabling Spot to accurately determine its position and orientation in 3D space.
2. Map Generation: Allowing Spot to be aware of the surroundings and know its relative position to the map.
3. Loop closure detection: Improving map consistency and reducing drift over long trajectories.
