RViZ no Visualization in world frame and path #6
Comments
Hi @honeytung, thank you for using our system. It looks like the loop closure module is not functioning as intended for you, and as a result, the back-end is unable to run and show the final trajectory estimates in the global frame. Could you post the log generated by each robot's loop closure module, so that we can further investigate this issue? For example, the log of the first robot should be located at |
Hello @yuluntian, thank you for your reply! Here are the logs for each robot. |
Thank you for sharing the logs. It seems that the

Thanks, @yuluntian for your help! I was able to find out the issue. It turns out I was missing one package required for Kimera-VIO (the I am able to see the RViZ result after running rosbags for the first two robots ( I noticed that even when running with two robots, my system RAM usage will be approaching almost 30GB. What would be the estimated minimum system requirement for running with six robots? |
Great! Yes, those are the expected trajectory estimates for the first two robots. About RAM usage: the ideal way to run Kimera-Multi is to run each robot on a separate machine. This way the RAM usage on each machine will be much lower. However, the current public release doesn't have an example for this yet, because we are still waiting for approval to release the inter-robot/machine communication module. That being said, 30GB still sounds a little high just for two robots. Just to check, did you launch the full six robots example (but only played the bags for the first two robots)? This might explain the 30GB because the other four robots also take up RAM even if they are not processing any data. |
Thanks @yuluntian! I ran the example with only the commands for Additionally, I noticed that the example file does not launch kimera-semantics for the 3D mesh construction. Are there any commands that I am missing from the |
@honeytung Thanks! I'm going to close this because the main issue is addressed. Re RAM: currently, we don't have plans for improving the RAM usage, so if this becomes a bottleneck, the best way forward would be to try the multi-machine setup when that's released. Re mesh reconstruction: you're right the example does not launch kimera-semantics and I will need to get back to you on this. Please open a new issue if needed and we can discuss from there. |
Hello, thank you for sharing this great work! I was trying to run the example with the campus outdoor dataset but there are no visualization showing up in RViZ. All the setup and code builds with no errors and the command
CATKIN_WS=<path-to-catkin-ws> DATA_PATH=<path-to-campus-outdoor-data-folder> LOG_DIR=<path-to-log-folder> tmuxp load 1014-example.yaml
also ran fine with no errors.However, inside RViZ it cannot find the fixed frame
world
and in the terminal, it also shows 0 loop-closures for the entire duration of the rosbags. I wonder if I missed anything and any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!I am running ROS noetic.
