The Mobile Robot Programming Toolkit (MRPT) is an extensive, cross-platform,
and open source C++ library aimed to help robotics researchers to design and
implement algorithms in the fields of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping
(SLAM), computer vision, and motion planning (obstacle avoidance).
The libraries include classes for easily managing 3D(6D) geometry,
probability density functions (pdfs) over many predefined variables (points
and poses, landmarks, maps), Bayesian inference (Kalman filters, particle
filters), image processing, path planning and obstacle avoidance, 3D
visualization of all kind of maps (points, occupancy grids, landmarks,...),
etc.
Gathering, manipulating and inspecting very large robotic datasets (Rawlogs)
efficiently is another goal of MRPT, supported by several classes and
applications.
The MRPT is free software and is released under the GPL.
