Abstract
In this paper we present a system for capturing
large scale dense maps in an online setting with a low cost
RGB-D sensor. Central to this work is the use of an “as-rigid-aspossible”
space deformation for efficient dense map correction
in a pose graph optimisation framework. By combining pose
graph optimisation with non-rigid deformation of a dense map
we are able to obtain highly accurate dense maps over large
scale trajectories that are both locally and globally consistent.
With low latency in mind we derive an incremental method for
deformation graph construction, allowing multi-million point
maps to be captured over hundreds of metres in real-time.
We provide benchmark results on a well established RGBD
SLAM dataset demonstrating the accuracy of the system
and also provide a number of our own datasets which cover a
wide range of environments, both indoors, outdoors and across
multiple floors.
