SLAMForge Desktop 3.1.0-beta.1

SLAMForge Desktop 3.1.0-beta.1

This is the first downloadable SLAMForge Desktop beta. It packages the SLAM engine and Qt desktop
interface so users can process videos without building the source code.

Downloads

• SLAMForge-Desktop-3.1.0-beta.1-Windows-x64.zip — portable Windows 10/11 x64 package.
• SLAMForge-Desktop-3.1.0-beta.1-Linux-x86_64.AppImage — portable Linux x86_64 application.
• SHA256SUMS.txt — checksums for both packages.

What works

• Drag or select MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, and M4V video files.
• Select a calibrated SLAMForge camera YAML and writable result directory.
• Run or cancel the isolated SLAM worker while monitoring progress and logs.
• Display the completed sparse map and camera trajectory in an interactive result view.
• Export ASCII PLY, TUM/KITTI/EuRoC trajectory output, and a persistent run log.
• Local-only processing with no video or map upload.

Important limitations

• Accurate camera calibration is required and is not inferred automatically.
• Monocular reconstruction has unknown absolute scale.
• Low texture, blur, pure rotation, repeated patterns, or insufficient parallax can prevent
  initialization or tracking.
• Live per-frame map rendering is not included yet; the result viewer updates after processing.
• The packages enable Ceres local bundle adjustment but omit optional g2o/FBOW loop closing.
• The Windows beta is unsigned and may trigger a SmartScreen warning.

metadata, camera configuration, run.log, operating system, and package filename.
