Notes

Notes from Rohan:

• could use MATLAB coder to move MATLAB code to C/C++ code
  • not sure if this is possible for Java code as well
  • Prof. mentioned wanting Java code s.t. other students can read and critique codebase
• use MATLAB functions, create new MATLAB objects for data structures / database system
• dataset used by MATLAB example: https://cvg.cit.tum.de/data/datasets/rgbd-dataset

Performing VSLAM using online dataset

• Open up MATLAB console
• Install necessary Mathworks Library: Vision, Visual SLAM (users will be queried to download necessary packages)
• In MATLAB console, set imagesPath to 'rgbd_dataset_freiburg3_long_office_household/rgb'
• Run the vslam_implementation.m script with the imagesPath as input
• Use output of worldPointSet for figuring out which key features belong to which objects
