Jetson-SLAM

The frontend of Jetson-SLAM will be released as a separate repository as-well.

Authors: Ashish Kumar

This repository contains Jetson-SLAM with FULL-BA back-end Jetson-SLAM is a GPU-thrusted real-time SLAM library for Monocular, Stereo and RGB-D cameras. It can run very high speeds beyond 500FPS on RTX-2070 and Beyond 90FPS on Jetson-NX @320x240 resolution. Please see the Jetson-SLAM Paper for rigorous results over different resolutions, GPUs and comparison with existing VO/VIO/SLAM pipelines.

Jetson-SLAM can run alongside Deep Neural Networks. It is fully behchmarked with VGG
