一、ROS下安装环境
1、按照官方指导第一步，但并未成功配置，也不知道在哪make
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oroca/oroca-ros-pkg/master/ros_install.sh && \
chmod 755 ./ros_install.sh && bash ./ros_install.sh catkin_ws kinetic
2、然后选择自己下载编译源码
git clone https://github.com/slightech/MYNT-EYE-S-SDK
cd <SDK>
make ros
会自动运行
make init
make install
make samples
make tools
运行完，配置成功
3、测试，试试samples
make samples
./samples/_output/bin/api/camera_a
二、相机测试、标定参数获取
1、测试相机
cd <sdk>
make ros //仅第一次需要
source wrappers/ros/devel/setup.bash
roslaunch mynt_eye_ros_wrapper mynteye.launch // 打开摄像头，但默认不显示图像
roslaunch mynt_eye_ros_wrapper display.launch //也可以运行这个节点，会打开 RViz 显示图像
2、获得当前工作设备的图像校准参数与imu校准参数：
cd <sdk>
./samples/_output/bin/tutorials/get_img_params //获取相机标定参数
./samples/_output/bin/tutorials/get_imu_params //获取IMU标定参数
3、安装vins并建立启动文件
vins源码：https://github.com/HKUST-Aerial-Robotics/VINS-Mono
cd ~/ws_vins/src //your vins_workspace
git clone https://github.com/HKUST-Aerial-Robotics/VINS-Mono.git
cd ../
catkin_make
source ~/ws_vins/devel/setup.bash
TIP：如果报错，需要看是否缺少ceres库
1、打开终端 git clone https://github.com/ceres-solver/ceres-solver.git
2、把ceres库拷贝下来。
3、安装依赖项和编译工具：
3.1、 CMake安装：
sudo apt-get install cmake
3.2、 google-glog + gflags
sudo apt-get install libgoogle-glog-dev
3.3、 BLAS & LAPACK
sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev
3.4、 Eigen3
sudo apt-get install libeigen3-dev
3.5、 SuiteSparse and CXSparse (optional)
sudo apt-get install libsuitesparse-dev
4、编译ceres库：在终端打开进入ceres-solver
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
这样就安装到系统的默认地方。
三、建立启动文件
第一步：在~/ws_vins/src/VINS-Mono/vins_estimator/launch下新建一个mynteye.launch文件。
第二步：在/home/fish/ws_vins/src/VINS-Mono/config文件下建立一个名为mynteye的文件夹，并新建mynteye_config.yaml文件。
两个文件内容分别如下：
mynteye.launch ：
<node name="feature_tracker" pkg="feature_tracker" type="feature_tracker" output="log">
<param name="config_file" type="string" value="$(arg config_path)" />
<param name="vins_folder" type="string" value="$(arg vins_path)" />
</node>
<node name="vins_estimator" pkg="vins_estimator" type="vins_estimator" output="screen">
<param name="config_file" type="string" value="$(arg config_path)" />
<param name="vins_folder" type="string" value="$(arg vins_path)" />
</node>
<node name="pose_graph" pkg="pose_graph" type="pose_graph" output="screen">
<param name="config_file" type="string" value="$(arg config_path)" />
<param name="visualization_shift_x" type="int" value="0" />
<param name="visualization_shift_y" type="int" value="0" />
<param name="skip_cnt" type="int" value="0" />
<param name="skip_dis" type="double" value="0" />
</node>
mynteye_config.yaml ：
注意将部分参数更换（如topic和相机、imu参数）
%YAML:1.0
#common parameters
imu_topic: "/mynteye/imu/data_raw" #换成你的IMU的话题
image_topic: "/mynteye/left/image_raw" #换成你的相机的话题

四、开启相机节点并运行vins
1、 启动相机
cd <sdk>
source ./wrappers/ros/devel/setup.bash
roslaunch mynt_eye_ros_wrapper mynteye.launch
2、启动vins
cd ws_vins //your vins_workspace
source devel/setup.bash
roslaunch vins_estimator mynteye.launch
3、启动可视化环境
cd ws_vins //your vins_workspace
source devel/setup.bash
roslaunch vins_estimator vins_rviz.launch
完成。
