How to Create a Georeferenced PointCloud with ZED Camera?

Hi everyone,

I’m working with the ZED camera and have been using the global localization module from the GitHub repository. It works great, and we can create a PointCloud from an .svo file using the ZEDfu tool.

However, the problem is that the points in the PointCloud are not georeferenced. I’m wondering if anyone in the community knows how to add georeferencing to the PointCloud.

Here’s what I’ve done so far:

  • Using the ZED camera to create an .svo file.
  • Using the ZEDfu tool to generate a PointCloud.
  • Global localization is working, but the PointCloud is not georeferenced.

Can anyone suggest how I can achieve georeferencing for the PointCloud or point me to resources that could help?
