Hey guys,

Is there any ROS 3D pointcloud SLAM package available, which does not use any odometry sources? http://wiki.ros.org/ethzasl_icp_mapper seems to require the sensor_frame → /odom transform.

Thanks.

For depth only,

http://wiki.ros.org/loam_velodyne (code not available now)

http://sourceforge.net/p/slam6d/code/... (SLAM 6D)

https://github.com/search?q=velodyne+...

As for RGBD sensor, some state-of-the-art algorithms are listed below.

actually I am not talking about visual odometry. I am looking for package that only makes use of pointcloud data, for example from a Velodyne sensor, and perform 3D SLAM. Thanks!

@Ricky Thank you very much.

You're welcome. loam_velodyne seems to be the best, but now the source code cannot be accessed. Maybe you can try implementing their algorithm described in their paper.

@Peshala, were you able to come up with a solution that only uses point cloud data to perform 3D scan?

(probably old) loam_velodyne code can be found here: http://docs.ros.org/indigo/api/loam_v...

How can I install de loam_velodyne code you posted there? Can I still use it?

Hi @Kailegh, the original loam_velodyne repository is no longer available (I think the author founded Real Earth). However there is a fork here that seems to be active. If you try it, let us know how it works for you.

I have try the code you gave me. I have only done a few test but it seems to map de lasers pretty good. As I use it I will coment furthers results. Do you have any other methods to do a 3D SLAM with the velodyne data?
