Key points

  • DynaSLAM integrates dynamic object detection and background inpainting into visual SLAM systems.
  • It supports monocular, stereo, and RGB-D configurations and detects moving objects via multiview geometry and/or deep learning.
  • The system enables static map creation and inpainting of areas occluded by dynamic objects.
  • DynaSLAM demonstrates superior accuracy compared to standard visual SLAM baselines in highly dynamic environments.

Abstract

The assumption of scene rigidity is typical in SLAM algorithms. Such a strong assumption limits the use of most visual SLAM systems in populated real-world environments, which are the target of several relevant applications like service robotics or autonomous vehicles. In this letter we present DynaSLAM, a visual SLAM system that, building on ORB-SLAM2, adds the capabilities of dynamic object detection and background inpainting. DynaSLAM is robust in dynamic scenarios for monocular, stereo, and RGB-D configurations. We are capable of detecting the moving objects either by multiview geometry, deep learning, or both. Having a static map of the scene allows inpainting the frame background that has been occluded by such dynamic objects. We evaluate our system in public monocular, stereo, and RGB-D datasets. We study the impact of several accuracy/speed trade-offs to assess the limits of the proposed methodology. DynaSLAM outperforms the accuracy of standard visual SLAM baselines in highly dynamic scenarios. And it also estimates a map of the static parts of the scene, which is a must for long-term applications in real-world environments.
