SimTrack

SimTrack, a simulation-based framework for tracking, is a ROS-package for real-time pose detection and tracking of multiple (textured) rigid objects. SimTrack is released under the BSD-license. The source code and installation instructions can be found in the github repository. Please cite the following paper if you use SimTrack in your research:

• K. Pauwels and D. Kragic, “SimTrack: A Simulation-based Framework for Scalable Real-time Object Pose Detection and Tracking,” in IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, Hamburg, Germany, 2015.
