Abstract:Monocular and RGB-D visual-inertial SLAM systems remain susceptible to limited field of view, sensor-specific failure modes, and unreliable cross-session relocalization. To address these issues, we present GeoFlow-SLAM++, a tightly coupled multi-camera visual-inertial SLAM system that extends GeoFlow-SLAM from a single RGB-D sensor to a calibrated multi-camera rig with a unified body-centric formulation. Within this multi-camera framework, GeoFlow-SLAM++ supports two interchangeable visual front-ends: a conventional ORB front-end and a neural network feature (NN-Feature) front-end built on SuperPoint and LightGlue. The system unifies tracking, mapping, and relocalization on a shared body state, and combines multi-camera reprojection constraints, IMU pre-integration, cross-view place recognition, and dual-stream optical flow/NN-Feature tracking for robust localization. As an optional extension, the system can further incorporate cross-view-consistent pseudo-depth predictions from RGB images as auxiliary geometric constraints. We evaluate GeoFlow-SLAM++ on EuRoC, OpenLORIS, TUM, Hilti, and a self-collected handheld multi-camera dataset. Results show that the NN-Feature front-end improves robustness in appearance-challenging scenarios, the multi-camera formulation achieves competitive localization accuracy on Hilti, and the unified cross-view relocalization design reaches LiDAR-comparable performance on the handheld dataset.
Abstract:LLM agents follow a practical execution loop in digital environments: they reason over structured states, invoke tools, inspect feedback, and revise actions. Extending this loop to physical robots is difficult because physical execution is continuous, embodiment-dependent, uncertain, and constrained by safety. Existing embodied-AI systems have advanced manipulation, spatial understanding, navigation, and humanoid control, but these capabilities often remain specialized modules or loosely coupled decision loops. In this work, we introduce HoloAgent-0, a unified embodied agent framework for real-world robot deployment. Embodied AgentOS converts language instructions into executable skill graphs, schedules robot resources, monitors execution, and triggers clarification or re-planning from runtime feedback. HoloAgent-0 organizes heterogeneous robot models and controllers through three coupled layers: Embodied AgentOS for closed-loop execution, 3D spatial memory for physical world grounding, and embodied skills for robot action. We deploy HoloAgent-0 on real hardware and evaluate its spatial memory, long-horizon navigation, and closed-loop execution across motion generation, object search, cross-robot coordination, and mobile manipulation.
Abstract:This paper presents GeoFlow-SLAM, a robust and effective Tightly-Coupled RGBD-inertial SLAM for legged robots operating in highly dynamic environments.By integrating geometric consistency, legged odometry constraints, and dual-stream optical flow (GeoFlow), our method addresses three critical challenges:feature matching and pose initialization failures during fast locomotion and visual feature scarcity in texture-less scenes.Specifically, in rapid motion scenarios, feature matching is notably enhanced by leveraging dual-stream optical flow, which combines prior map points and poses. Additionally, we propose a robust pose initialization method for fast locomotion and IMU error in legged robots, integrating IMU/Legged odometry, inter-frame Perspective-n-Point (PnP), and Generalized Iterative Closest Point (GICP). Furthermore, a novel optimization framework that tightly couples depth-to-map and GICP geometric constraints is first introduced to improve the robustness and accuracy in long-duration, visually texture-less environments. The proposed algorithms achieve state-of-the-art (SOTA) on collected legged robots and open-source datasets. To further promote research and development, the open-source datasets and code will be made publicly available at https://github.com/NSN-Hello/GeoFlow-SLAM
