For a first experiment
Start with OpenSeqSLAM2.0 for a guided MATLAB exploration, VPR-Bench for comparative evaluation, or VSLAM-LAB for a reproducible VSLAM experiment framework.

How to use this page
Start with the right kind of code.
Some projects are ready-to-run research releases. Others are historical reference implementations or shared infrastructure. The labels make that distinction visible.
For historical foundations
Use OpenRatSLAM, OpenSeqSLAM and RatSLAM MATLAB to study the original ideas. They are valuable references, but their older toolchains need more setup care.
Suggested entry points
The short list.
A compact route through the catalogue, not a ranking. Follow the repository link for code, then use the paper or documentation link for context.
Complete audit
Find the code.
Search by project, research area, relationship, status or licence. The repository remains the source of truth as dependencies and activity change.
Attribution note. This catalogue separates Michael Milford-authored or coauthored releases from collaborator-led code, QUT Centre for Robotics-wide infrastructure, community ports and related repositories. A QCR or RoboStack link is not automatically a claim of sole authorship.
About this audit
This is a public-facing catalogue of repositories and project hubs connected to Michael Milford’s research and the wider QUT Centre for Robotics ecosystem. It checks the visible repository description, README, licence, release/activity signals, installation path and attribution available from the linked sources on 6 September 2026.
- “Direct / coauthored” means Michael is named as an author or contributor on the project or its associated release.
- “Collaborative” and “Centre-wide” entries are useful parts of the research ecosystem but should be attributed at repository or paper level.
- “Legacy”, “archived” and “community” labels are practical warnings, not judgements about research value.
- Licences are shown as a discovery aid. Check the repository and dependency licences before redistribution or commercial use.
