VIO system incorporating wheel encoders

This work is based on VINS-Fusion

Videos:

1. Prerequisites

1.1 Ubuntu and ROS

Ubuntu 64-bit 16.04 or 18.04. ROS Kinetic or Melodic. ROS Installation

1.2. Ceres Solver

Follow Ceres Installation.

2. Build VINS-Fusion

Clone the repository and catkin_make:

    cd ~/catkin_ws/src
    git clone https://github.com/HKUST-Aerial-Robotics/VINS-Fusion.git
    cd ../
    catkin_make
    source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

(if you fail in this step, try to find another computer with clean system or reinstall Ubuntu and ROS)

3. KAIST Example

Download EuRoC MAV Dataset to YOUR_DATASET_FOLDER.
