ROS 2 Build Status </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> #### ROS Binaries </tbody> </table> # Installation ## ROS2 distribution **Under construction**: see [ros2 branch](https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros/tree/ros2#rtabmap_ros). ## ROS distribution RTAB-Map is released as binaries in the ROS distribution. ```bash sudo apt install ros-$ROS_DISTRO-rtabmap-ros ``` When launching `rtabmap_ros`'s nodes, if you have the error `error while loading shared libraries...`, try `ldconfig` or add the next line at the end of your `~/.bashrc` to fix it: ```bash export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ros/noetic/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu ``` ### Docker * Go to [docker](https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros/tree/master/docker) directory for an example. ## Build from source This section shows how to install RTAB-Map ros-pkg on **ROS Noetic** (Catkin build). * The next instructions assume that you have set up your ROS workspace using this [tutorial](http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials/create_a_workspace). The workspace path is `~/catkin_ws` and your `~/.bashrc` contains: ```bash $ source /opt/ros/$ROS_DISTRO/setup.bash $ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash ``` 0. Required dependencies * The easiest way to get all them (Qt, PCL, VTK, OpenCV, g2o, gtsam ...) is to install/uninstall rtabmap binaries: ```bash sudo apt install ros-$ROS_DISTRO-rtabmap* sudo apt remove ros-$ROS_DISTRO-rtabmap* ``` 1. Optional dependencies * If you want SURF/SIFT on Noetic, you have to build [OpenCV]([OpenCV](http://opencv.org/)) from source to have access to *xfeatures2d* and *nonfree* modules. Install it in `/usr/local` (default) and rtabmap library should link with it instead of the one installed in ROS. * On Noetic, build from source with *xfeatures2d* module (and *nonfree* module if needed) the same OpenCV version already installed on the system. You will then avoid breaking `cv_bridge` with `rtabmap_ros`. If you want to install a more recent OpenCV version, I recommend to uninstall `libopencv*` libraries (with all ros packages depending on it) and rebuild all those ros packages in your catkin workspace (to make sure `cv_bridge` is linked on the OpenCV version you just compiled). * [g2o](https://github.com/RainerKuemmerle/g2o): Should be already installed by `ros-$ROS_DISTRO-libg2o`. * [GTSAM](https://gtsam.org/get_started/): Should be already installed by `ros-$ROS_DISTRO-gtsam`. * [libpointmatcher](https://github.com/ethz-asl/libpointmatcher): **Recommended** if you are going to use lidars. Should be alread installed by `ros-$ROS_DISTRO-libpointmatcher` (Official [install instructions](https://github.com/ethz-asl/libpointmatcher#quick-start)). 2. Install RTAB-Map standalone libraries. **Do not clone in your Catkin workspace**. ```bash cd ~ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git rtabmap cd rtabmap/build cmake .. [<---double dots included] make -j6 sudo make install ``` 3. Install RTAB-Map ros-pkg in your src folder of your Catkin workspace. ```bash cd ~/catkin_ws git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros catkin_make -j4 ``` * Use `catkin_make -j1` if compilation requires more RAM than you have (e.g., some files require up to ~2 GB to build depending on gcc version). * Options: * Add `-DRTABMAP_SYNC_MULTI_RGBD=ON` to `catkin_make` if you plan to use multiple cameras. * Add `-DRTABMAP_SYNC_USER_DATA=ON` to `catkin_make` if you plan to use user data synchronized topics. ## Build from source for Nvidia Jetson * For latest jetpack, see this [post](https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros/issues/943) to use docker (you will save a lot of time using the already built docker images). * For **Jetpack 4** (Ubuntu 18.04 with ROS Melodic), see this [post](https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap/issues/427#issuecomment-608052821). * For **Jetpack 3** (Ubuntu 16.04 with ROS Kinetic), see this [post](https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros/issues/655). ### Update to new version ```bash ########### # rtabmap ########### cd rtabmap git pull origin master cd build make make install # Do "sudo make install" if you installed rtabmap in "/usr/local" ########### # rtabmap_ros ########### roscd rtabmap_ros git pull origin master roscd cd .. catkin_make -j1 --pkg rtabmap_ros ```

rtabmap_ros Build Status

RTAB-Map’s ROS2 package (branch ros2). ROS2 Foxy minimum required: currently most nodes are ported to ROS2, however they are not all tested yet. The interface is the same than on ROS1 (parameters and topic names should still match ROS1 documentation on rtabmap_ros).

rtabmap.launch is also ported to ROS2 with same arguments. If you see ROS1 examples like this:

roslaunch zed_wrapper zed_no_tf.launch

roslaunch rtabmap_ros rtabmap.launch \
    rtabmap_args:="--delete_db_on_start" \
    rgb_topic:=/zed/zed_node/rgb/image_rect_color \
    depth_topic:=/zed/zed_node/depth/depth_registered \
    camera_info_topic:=/zed/zed_node/rgb/camera_info \
    frame_id:=base_link \
    approx_sync:=false \
    wait_imu_to_init:=true \
    imu_topic:=/zed_node/imu/data

The ROS2 equivalent is (with those lines set to false to avoid TF conflicts):

ros2 launch zed_wrapper zed.launch.py

ros2 launch rtabmap_ros rtabmap.launch.py \
    rtabmap_args:="--delete_db_on_start" \
    rgb_topic:=/zed/zed_node/rgb/image_rect_color \
    depth_topic:=/zed/zed_node/depth/depth_registered \
    camera_info_topic:=/zed/zed_node/rgb/camera_info \
    frame_id:=base_link \
    approx_sync:=false \
    wait_imu_to_init:=true \
    imu_topic:=/zed/zed_node/imu/data \
    qos:=1 \
    rviz:=true

qos (Quality of Service) argument should match the published topics QoS (1=RELIABLE, 2=BEST EFFORT). ROS1 was always RELIABLE.

Installation

  • RTAB-Map ROS2 package:
    cd ~/ros2_ws
    git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git src/rtabmap
    git clone --branch ros2 https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros
    export MAKEFLAGS="-j6" # Can be ignored if you have a lot of RAM (>16GB)
    colcon build --symlink-install
  • To build with rgbd_cameras>1 support and/or subscribe_user_data support:
    colcon build --symlink-install --cmake-args -DRTABMAP_SYNC_MULTI_RGBD=ON -DRTABMAP_SYNC_USER_DATA=ON

Example with Turtlebot3

  1. Launch Turtlebot3 simulator:
    export TURTLEBOT3_MODEL=waffle
    ros2 launch turtlebot3_gazebo turtlebot3_world.launch.py
    
    export TURTLEBOT3_MODEL=waffle
    ros2 run turtlebot3_teleop teleop_keyboard
  1. Launch RTAB-Map:
    ros2 launch rtabmap_ros turtlebot3_scan.launch.py
    
    # OR with rtabmap.launch.py
    ros2 launch rtabmap_ros rtabmap.launch.py \
       visual_odometry:=false \
       frame_id:=base_footprint \
       subscribe_scan:=true depth:=false \
       approx_sync:=true \
       odom_topic:=/odom \
       scan_topic:=/scan \
       qos:=2 \
       args:="-d --RGBD/NeighborLinkRefining true --Reg/Strategy 1" \
       use_sim_time:=true \
       rviz:=true
  1. Launch navigation (nav2_bringup package should be installed):
    ros2 launch nav2_bringup navigation_launch.py use_sim_time:=True
    ros2 launch nav2_bringup rviz_launch.py

See launch/ros2 subfolder for some other ROS2 examples with turtlebot3 in simulation and a RGB-D camera.

Installation

ROS distribution

RTAB-Map is released as binaries in the ROS distribution.

  • Lunar
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-lunar-rtabmap-ros
  • Kinetic
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-rtabmap-ros
  • Jade
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-jade-rtabmap-ros
  • Indigo
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-rtabmap-ros
  • Hydro:
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-rtabmap-ros
    

* Note that rtabmap_ros Hydro binaries are stuck at version 0.8.12. To use the latest version, see [Build from source](https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros#build-from-source) below.

When launching rtabmap_ros’s nodes, if you have the error error while loading shared libraries..., add the next line at the end of your ~/.bashrc to fix it:

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ros/kinetic/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

Build from source

This section shows how to install RTAB-Map ros-pkg on ROS Hydro/Indigo/Jade/Kinetic/Lunar (Catkin build). RTAB-Map works only with the PCL >=1.7, which is the default version installed with ROS Hydro/Indigo/Jade/Kinetic/Lunar (Fuerte and Groovy are not supported).

  • The next instructions assume that you have set up your ROS workspace using this tutorial. I will use kinetic prefix for convenience, but it should work with Hydro, Indigo, Jade and Lunar. The workspace path is ~/catkin_ws and your ~/.bashrc contains:
    $ source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
    $ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
  1. Required dependencies
    • The easiest way to get all them (Qt, PCL, VTK, OpenCV, …) is to install/uninstall rtabmap binaries:
          $ sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-rtabmap ros-kinetic-rtabmap-ros
          $ sudo apt-get remove ros-kinetic-rtabmap ros-kinetic-rtabmap-ros
  1. Optional dependencies
    • If you want SURF/SIFT on Indigo/Jade (Hydro has already SIFT/SURF), you have to build OpenCV from source to have access to nonfree module. Install it in /usr/local (default) and the rtabmap library should link with it instead of the one installed in ROS.
      • On Indigo/Jade, I recommend to use latest 2.4 version (2.4.11) and build it from source following these instructions. RTAB-Map can build with OpenCV3+xfeatures2d module, but rtabmap_ros package will have libraries conflict as cv-bridge is depending on OpenCV2. If you want OpenCV3, you should build ros vision-opencv package yourself (and all ros packages depending on it) so it can link on OpenCV3.
      • On Kinetic/Lunar, I recommend to use OpenCV3+xfeatures2d module already installed by ROS. You can also install OpenCV2, but rtabmap_ros package will have libraries conflict as cv-bridge is depending on OpenCV3. Thus if you want OpenCV2 on Kinetic/Lunar, you should build ros vision-opencv package yourself (and all ros packages depending on it) so it can link on OpenCV2.

    • g2o: Use directly the binaries ros-kinetic-libg2o. However, this g2o version (c++03 branch) built from source may be faster than the binaries (install libsuitesparse-dev before building g2o) and would be required to avoid some crashes. To build RTAB-Map against latest official g2o version built from source, g2o should be built with -DBUILD_WITH_MARCH_NATIVE=OFF to avoid some segmentation faults caused by Eigen.

    • GTSAM: Follow installation instructions from here. RTAB-Map needs latest version from source, it will not build with 3.2.1. Set cmake variable GTSAM_USE_SYSTEM_EIGEN=ON to make sure the same Eigen version is used across all dependencies to avoid crashes.
        git clone https://bitbucket.org/gtborg/gtsam.git
  1. Install RTAB-Map standalone libraries. Add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/catkin_ws/devel to cmake command below if you want to install in your Catkin’s devel folder without sudo. Do not clone in your Catkin workspace.
    $ cd ~
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git rtabmap
    $ cd rtabmap/build
    $ cmake ..  [<---double dots included]
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
  1. Install RTAB-Map ros-pkg in your src folder of your Catkin workspace.
    $ cd ~/catkin_ws
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros
    $ catkin_make -j1
    

* Use `catkin_make -j1` if compilation requires more RAM than you have (e.g., some files require up to ~1.8 GB to build).

Build from source for Nvidia Jetson with OpenCV 4 Tegra

To use rtabmap_ros on Jetson, you can follow the instructions above if you don’t care if OpenCV is built for Tegra. However, if you want rtabmap to use OpenCV 4 Tegra, we must re-build vision_opencv stack from source too to avoid conflicts with vision_opencv stack binaries from ros (which are linked on a not optimized version of OpenCV). Here are the steps:

  1. Install JetPack with OpenCV on the Jetson.
  2. Do steps 1.2 and 1.3 from http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu

  3. Install non-opencv dependent ros packages:

    • sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-ros-base ros-kinetic-image-transport ros-kinetic-tf ros-kinetic-tf-conversions ros-kinetic-eigen-conversions ros-kinetic-laser-geometry ros-kinetic-pcl-conversions ros-kinetic-pcl-ros ros-kinetic-move-base-msgs ros-kinetic-rviz ros-kinetic-octomap-ros ros-kinetic-move-base libhdf5-openmpi-dev libsuitesparse-dev
  4. Do step 1.6 from http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu
  5. Create your catkin workspace
  6. Optional: Install g2o and/or GTSAM dependencies as above (increase visual odometry and graph optimization accuracy).
  7. To avoid libGL undefined errors:
     $ cd /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/
     $ sudo ln -sf tegra/libGL.so libGL.so
  1. To avoid libvtkproj4 errors:
    $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libvtkCommonCore-6.2.so /usr/lib/libvtkproj4.so
    $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libvtkCommonCore-6.2.so /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libvtkproj4-6.2.so.6.2.0
  1. Install RTAB-Map standalone libraries. Add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/catkin_ws/devel to cmake command below if you want to install in your Catkin’s devel folder without sudo. Do not clone in your Catkin workspace.
    $ cd ~
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git rtabmap
    $ cd rtabmap/build
    $ cmake ..  [<---double dots included]
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
  1. Clone vision_opencv, image_transport_plugins and rtabmap_ros packages in your catkin_ws:
    $ cd ~/catkin_ws
    $ git clone https://github.com/ros-perception/vision_opencv src/vision_opencv
    $ git clone https://github.com/ros-perception/image_transport_plugins.git src/image_transport_plugins
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros src/rtabmap_ros
    $ catkin_make -j2

Installation

ROS distribution

RTAB-Map is released as binaries in the ROS distribution.

  • Indigo
$ sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-rtabmap-ros
  • Hydro
$ sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-rtabmap-ros

Build from source

This section shows how to install RTAB-Map ros-pkg on ROS Hydro/Indigo (Catkin build). RTAB-Map works only with the PCL 1.7, which is the default version installed with ROS Hydro/Indigo (Fuerte and Groovy are not supported).

  • Note for ROS Indigo: If you want SURF/SIFT, you have to build OpenCV from source to have access to nonfree module. Install it in /usr/local (default) and the rtabmap library should link with it instead of the one installed in ROS.

  • The next instructions assume that you have setup your ROS workspace using this tutorial. The workspace path is ~/catkin_ws and your ~/.bashrc contains:

source /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash
source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
  1. First, you need to install the RTAB-Map standalone libraries (don’t checkout in the Catkin workspace but install in your Catkin’s devel folder).
$ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git rtabmap
$ cd rtabmap/build
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/catkin_ws/devel ..  [<---double dots included]
$ make -j4
$ make install

Installation

ROS2 distribution

Under construction: see ros2 branch.

ROS distribution

RTAB-Map is released as binaries in the ROS distribution.

  • Noetic
    $ sudo apt install ros-noetic-rtabmap-ros
  • Melodic
    $ sudo apt install ros-melodic-rtabmap-ros
  • Kinetic
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-rtabmap-ros
  • Indigo
    $ sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-rtabmap-ros
    

* For armhf architecture, `ros-indigo-rtabmap-ros` is not available. Install `ros-indigo-rtabmap` and build from source `rtabmap_ros` using the `indigo-devel` branch.

        $ cd catkin_ws
        $ git clone -b indigo-devel https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros
        $ catkin_make -j1

When launching rtabmap_ros’s nodes, if you have the error error while loading shared libraries..., try ldconfig or add the next line at the end of your ~/.bashrc to fix it:

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ros/noetic/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

Docker

  • Go to docker directory for an example.

Build from source

This section shows how to install RTAB-Map ros-pkg on ROS Hydro/Indigo/Jade/Kinetic/Lunar/Melodic/Noetic (Catkin build). RTAB-Map works only with the PCL >=1.7, which is the default version installed with ROS Hydro/Indigo/Jade/Kinetic/Lunar/Melodic/Noetic (Fuerte and Groovy are not supported).

  • The next instructions assume that you have set up your ROS workspace using this tutorial. I will use noetic prefix for convenience, but it should work with Hydro, Indigo, Jade, Kinetic, Lunar and Melodic. The workspace path is ~/catkin_ws and your ~/.bashrc contains:
    $ source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash
    $ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
  1. Required dependencies
    • The easiest way to get all them (Qt, PCL, VTK, OpenCV, …) is to install/uninstall rtabmap binaries:
          $ sudo apt install ros-noetic-rtabmap ros-noetic-rtabmap-ros
          $ sudo apt remove ros-noetic-rtabmap ros-noetic-rtabmap-ros
  1. Optional dependencies
    • If you want SURF/SIFT on Indigo/Jade/Melodic/Noetic (Hydro/Kinetic has already SIFT/SURF), you have to build OpenCV from source to have access to xfeatures2d and nonfree modules (note that SIFT is not in nonfree anymore since OpenCV 4.4.0). Install it in /usr/local (default) and rtabmap library should link with it instead of the one installed in ROS.
      • On Indigo, I recommend to use latest 2.4 version (2.4.11) and build it from source following these instructions. RTAB-Map can build with OpenCV3+xfeatures2d module, but rtabmap_ros package will have libraries conflict as cv_bridge is depending on OpenCV2. If you want OpenCV3+, you should build vision-opencv package yourself (and all ros packages depending on it) so it can link on OpenCV3+.
      • On Kinetic/Melodic/Noetic, build from source with xfeatures2d module (and nonfree module if needed) the same OpenCV version already installed on the system. You will then avoid breaking cv_bridge with rtabmap_ros. If you want to install a more recent OpenCV version, I recommend to uninstall libopencv* libraries (with all ros packages depending on it) and rebuild all those ros packages in your catkin workspace (to make sure cv_bridge is linked on the OpenCV version you just compiled).

    • g2o: Should be already installed by ros-noetic-libg2o.

    • GTSAM: Install via PPA to avoid building from source. If you install from source, make sure to build with cmake -DGTSAM_BUILD_WITH_MARCH_NATIVE=OFF -DGTSAM_USE_SYSTEM_EIGEN=ON.

    • libpointmatcher: Recommended if you are going to use lidars. Follow their instructions to install.
  2. Install RTAB-Map standalone libraries. Add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/catkin_ws/devel to cmake command below if you want to install in your Catkin’s devel folder without sudo. Do not clone in your Catkin workspace.
    $ cd ~
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git rtabmap
    $ cd rtabmap/build
    $ cmake ..  [<---double dots included]
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
  1. Install RTAB-Map ros-pkg in your src folder of your Catkin workspace.
    $ cd ~/catkin_ws
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros
    $ catkin_make -j1
    

* Use `catkin_make -j1` if compilation requires more RAM than you have (e.g., some files require up to ~2 GB to build depending on gcc version).
* Options:
    * Add `-DRTABMAP_SYNC_MULTI_RGBD=ON` to `catkin_make` if you plan to use multiple cameras.
    * Add `-DRTABMAP_SYNC_USER_DATA=ON` to `catkin_make` if you plan to use user data synchronized topics.

Build from source for Nvidia Jetson

These instructions are for Jetpack 3 (Ubuntu 16.04 with ROS Kinetic). For Jetpack 4 (Ubuntu 18.04 with ROS Melodic), see this post.

To use rtabmap_ros on Jetson, you can follow the instructions above if you don’t care if OpenCV is built for Tegra. However, if you want rtabmap to use OpenCV 4 Tegra, we must re-build vision_opencv stack from source too to avoid conflicts with vision_opencv stack binaries from ros (which are linked on a not optimized version of OpenCV). Here are the steps:

  1. Install JetPack with OpenCV on the Jetson.
  2. Do steps 1.2 and 1.3 from http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu
  3. Install non-opencv dependent ros packages:
    • Jetpack 3: sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-ros-base ros-kinetic-image-transport ros-kinetic-tf ros-kinetic-tf-conversions ros-kinetic-eigen-conversions ros-kinetic-laser-geometry ros-kinetic-pcl-conversions ros-kinetic-pcl-ros ros-kinetic-move-base-msgs ros-kinetic-rviz ros-kinetic-octomap-ros ros-kinetic-move-base libhdf5-openmpi-dev libsuitesparse-dev
  4. Do step 1.6 from http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu
  5. Create your catkin workspace
  6. Optional: Install g2o and/or GTSAM dependencies as above (increase visual odometry and graph optimization accuracy).
  7. To avoid libGL undefined errors:
     $ cd /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/
     # Jetpack 3:
     $ sudo ln -sf tegra/libGL.so libGL.so
     # Jetpack 4:
     sudo ln -sf libGL.so.1.0.0 libGL.so
  1. To avoid libvtkproj4 errors:
    $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libvtkCommonCore-6.2.so /usr/lib/libvtkproj4.so
    $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libvtkCommonCore-6.2.so /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libvtkproj4-6.2.so.6.2.0
  1. Install RTAB-Map standalone libraries. Add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/catkin_ws/devel to cmake command below if you want to install in your Catkin’s devel folder without sudo. Do not clone in your Catkin workspace.
    $ cd ~
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap.git rtabmap
    $ cd rtabmap/build
    $ cmake ..  [<---double dots included]
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
  1. Clone vision_opencv, image_transport_plugins and rtabmap_ros packages in your catkin_ws:
    $ cd ~/catkin_ws
    $ git clone https://github.com/ros-perception/vision_opencv src/vision_opencv
    $ git clone https://github.com/ros-perception/image_transport_plugins.git src/image_transport_plugins
    $ git clone https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap_ros.git src/rtabmap_ros
    $ catkin_make -j2
