<![CDATA[SLAM localization with TOF]]>Hello,

I understand that currently, localization is done through QVIO via the tracking camera.
For redundancy sake, I was wondering if there is any development work on localization through the TOF camera in tandem with the tracking camera.

Thank you for any information!

Appears to do localization. We could probably attempt to modify the source code to send VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE messages to the PX4 instance

"we have not, however there are a ton of open source point-cloud based localization methods and VOXL2 is a great platform to try them on!"
