Visual Relocalization

Monocular camera pose estimation on the COLMAP reconstruction model.

Clone the repository

Recursively clone the repository.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/CyberAgentAILab/visual-relocalization-colmap.git

Requirements

  • Docker
  • Python >= Version 3.9
  • Python pip

[!NOTE] In the following instructions, we will launch rviz on a Docker container. Please note that it may not work if your host OS is incompatible with running rviz on a container. We confirmed that it works correctly when using Ubuntu 22.04 as the host OS.

Download the dataset

Download the in-store visual localization dataset.

[!NOTE] This project requires downloading a significantly large dataset. Please be mindful of network usage and ensure you have a stable and adequate internet connection before proceeding.

pip3 install huggingface_hub==0.24.5
python3 download_dataset.py

Usage

Make sure that the dataset directory is placed under the repository root, then follow the instructions below.

Build the docker image.

./scripts/build_dockerfile.sh

Generate the PLY pointcloud file from the reconstruction model.

./scripts/make_ply.sh

Build the source files.

./scripts/build_source.sh

Run visual localization.

./scripts/run_localization.sh

Visualize the relocalization result. As RViz runs on a Docker container, rendering may be slower depending on the host OS or your computer specifications.

./scripts/launch_rviz.sh

Dataset structure

Optionally, if you want to run on your own dataset, follow the directory structure below.
