FAST-LIO-ROS2

Maintainer: Yunlong Feng
Modifier: Taeyoung Kim

What's New?

  • Dockerize
  • Step-by-step tutorial
  • Add save trajectory function
  • Add save map function without service callback

Results

I currently only experiment after converting the ros2 bag format from the M2DGR dataset.

How to use

I recommend utilizing docker to easily configure your environment setting.

Requirements

git clone --recursive https://github.com/Taeyoung96/FAST_LIO_ROS2.git

Make a docker image (For the docker user)

cd docker

docker build -t fast-lio-ros2:latest .

Environment setting

Make a docker container

When you create a docker container, you need several options to use the GUI and share folders.

First, you should enter the command below in the local terminal to enable docker to communicate with Xserver on the host.

xhost +local:docker

After that, make your own container with the command below.

sudo chmod -R 777 container_run.sh

./container_run.sh <container_name> <image_name:tag>

⚠️ You should change {container_name}, {docker image} to suit your environment.

For example,

 ./container_run.sh fast-lio-ros2 fast-lio-ros2:latest

In my case, I also shared an additional /data folder to run the ROS2 bag files.

If you have successfully created the docker container, the terminal output will be similar to the below.

output :

Current working directory: /home/taeyoung/Desktop/FAST_LIO_ROS2
================FAST-LIO ROS2 Docker Env Ready================
root@taeyoung-cilab:~/ros2_ws#

Build and Run the launch file

Within Docker, we need 2 containers.
To access the same container, use the command below

docker exec -it fast-lio-ros2 /bin/bash

Within the connected container,

source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash

This is an example for running M2DGR dataset. You need to use rosbags to change the ros1 bagfile to a ros2 bagfile already.

root@taeyoung-cilab:~/ros2_ws#

All should stay on the above path.

  • 1st container (For build fast_lio and livox_ros_driver2 package)
cd src/livox_ros_driver2/

./build.sh humble

This process only needs to be done once, after connecting to the container.
For all subsequent builds, simply proceed to colcon build on ros2_ws.

cd ~/ros2_ws/

source install/setup.bash

For launch fast_lio ros2 version for M2DGR.

ros2 launch fast_lio mapping_m2dgr.launch.py
  • 2nd container (For ros2 bag play)
ros2 bag play gate_01

Convert ROS1 bag to ROS2 bag

TODO

  • Test with more bag files.
  • Troubleshoot mapping speed issues
