Previously, two config values were spelled "bandwith".
The assumption is that these values are not used in other
repositories so the rename is harmless.
This allows Cartographer to use normal Application Default Credentials
(ADC) instead of a hand-generated format.
Google-internally, we'll only use ADC going forward. At your option, I
can keep the old code for the token files around if you think it would
be generally useful. Many OSS programs follow the same approach.
Adds a parameter for the currently hard coded `kSubmapsToKeep` in `pure_localization` mode.
The new parameter `max_submaps_with_pure_localization` allows to specify the history size of submaps in `pure_localization` mode.
Closes#1116
Add the parameter `OptimizationProblemOptions.use_online_imu_extrinsincs_in_3d`. Set it to true by default to not change existing behavior.
Using online IMU extrinsics is not always desirable, and particularly during localization, we have determined that it is preferable to turn this feature off.
- Introduce `RangeDataInserterInterface` as common interface for all range data inserters
- Introduce a minimal `GridInterface` as a base for a common interface for 2D and 3D grids
- Rename `RangeDataInserter2D` to `ProbabilityGridRangeDataInserter2D`
- Move grid generation logic from `Submap2D` to `ActiveSubmaps2D`
- Update proto and configuration structure to mirror the code structure - backwards compatibility is maintained
- Step towards [RFC 0019](https://github.com/googlecartographer/rfcs/blob/master/text/0019-probability-grid-and-submap2d-restructuring.md)
"scan" is better named "node" if it refers to a node in global SLAM.
"penalty factor" is renamed "weight" for consistency with other similar options.
"scans_per_accumulation" is renamed "num_accumulated_range_data" to match the code and since the accumulated data is not called "scan".
This PR introduces a new option that specifies the number of seconds
after which global matcher searches are performed if no recent global
constraints have been found between the submap's and the node's
trajectory.
This replaces the scaled covariances derived from the Ceres
scan matcher by directly configurable weights. Using covariances
did not provide the expected benefit, and replacing the scaling
matrix by two values will allow a faster evaluation of the cost
function in the future.
Removes the loss function for intra-submap constraints in 3D SLAM,
as it is already done in 2D. Also removes a duplicate call to the
solver in 2D, and code cleanup.
