Summary

Online GNSS/LiDAR/IMU odometry that tightly fuses raw GNSS pseudorange and Doppler with LiDAR and IMU for globally consistent, drift-free poses in urban canyons.

Key innovations

  1. Raw GNSS factors, IMU pre-integration and LiDAR factors in one factor graph
  2. Two stages: a sliding window for real-time odometry and batch optimisation for global consistency
  3. Robust to GNSS outliers in deep urban canyons

Impact

  • 439 GitHub stars and 43 forks
  • Published in IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles (2023)
  • Outcome of the Guangdong NSF project on 3D LiDAR-aided GNSS
