maplab 2.0 is an open, research-oriented C++ mapping framework for multi-session and multi-robot SLAM, built on ROS. It provides robust visual-inertial odometry, large-scale map optimization, and dense reconstruction, extensively tested on real robots.
Use cases
- build a visual-inertial SLAM system for a robot
- merge and optimize maps from multiple sessions
- run multi-robot collaborative mapping
- generate dense 3D reconstructions from camera data
- localize a robot against a prebuilt visual map
- research platform for SLAM algorithm development
When to choose
- you need multi-session or multi-robot mapping with map optimization
- you want a proven visual-inertial odometry and localization stack on Ubuntu/ROS
- you are doing SLAM research and want an extensible C++ framework
When to avoid
- you need a lightweight out-of-the-box SLAM for non-Linux platforms
- your project is not ROS-based
- you need active feature development rather than a maintained research codebase
