vslam-sandbox

A sandbox for integrating upstream vslam algorithms

Goal

This sandbox should allow using and benchmarking the available vSLAM algorithms using the vslam crate as an abstraction to allow swapping out different components.

Building

Please prepend RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" to your cargo commands to run this with native optimizations. Rust can perform some autovectorization via LLVM, but it needs to be told that its okay that it only runs on your system. There are also some dependencies that explicitly use the best available SIMD instructions when they are available, which they aren't by default. The above environment variable will fix that and allow it to use AVX-512 or AVX2 depending on what is available.
