| dc.description.abstract | Monocular 3D reconstruction is a challenging computer vision task that becomes even more stimulating when we aim at real-time performance. One way to obtain 3D reconstruction maps is through the use of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), a recurrent engineering problem, mainly in the area of robotics. It consists of building and updating a consistent map of the unknown environment and, simultaneously, saving the pose of the robot, or the camera, at every given time instant. A variety of algorithms has been proposed to address this problem, namely the Large Scale Direct Monocular SLAM (LSD-SLAM), ORB-SLAM, Direct Sparse Odometry (DSO) or Parallel Tracking and Mapping (PTAM), among others. However, despite the fact that these algorithms provide good results, they are computationally intensive. Hence, in this paper, we propose a modified version of DSO SLAM, which implements code parallelization techniques using OpenMP, an API for introducing parallelism in C, C++ and Fortran programs, that supports multi-platform shared memory multi-processing programming. With this approach we propose multiple directive-based code modifications, in order to make the SLAM algorithm execute considerably faster. The performance of the proposed solution was evaluated on standard datasets and provides speedups above 40% without significant extra parallel programming effort. | pt_PT |
