DUFOMap: Efficient Dynamic Awareness Mapping

[video coming soon] [poster coming soon]. Accepted by RA-L'24.

Quick Demo: Run with the same parameter setting without tuning for different sensor (e.g 16, 32, 64, and 128 channel LiDAR and Livox-series mid360), the following shows the data collected from:

Leica-RTC360	128-channel LiDAR	Livox-mid360

0. Setup

sudo apt update && sudo apt install gcc-10 g++-10
sudo apt install libtbb-dev liblz4-dev

Dockerfile will be soon available.

Clone quickly and init submodules:

git clone --recursive -b main --single-branch https://github.com/KTH-RPL/dufomap.git

1. Build & Run

Build:

cmake -B build -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++-10 && cmake --build build

Prepare Data: Teaser data (KITTI 00: 384.4Mb) can be downloaded via follow commands, more data detail can be found in the dataset section or format your own dataset follow custom dataset section.

wget https://zenodo.org/records/8160051/files/00.zip -p data
unzip data/00.zip -d data

Run:

./build/dufomap_run data/00 assets/config.toml

2. Evaluation

Please reference to DynamicMap_Benchmark for the evaluation of DUFOMap and comparison with other dynamic removal methods.
