Abstract

A method and system for capturing, by a camera a sequence of frames at respective locations within a portion of an environment; capturing, by an inertial measurement unit, a sequence of inertial odometry data corresponding to the sequence of frames at the respective locations; storing in a queue a data record includes information extracted from processing the respective frame and information from the inertial measurement unit; in accordance with a determination that the sequence of inertial odometry data satisfies a first criterion: calculating a first relative pose between the first frame and the second frame; and in accordance with a determination that a difference between the first relative pose and the information extracted from processing the respective frame satisfy a first threshold: generating an initial map of the portion of the environment based on the first data record and the second data record.
