  1. A critical use case of SLAM for mobile robots is to support localization during task-directed navigation. Current SLAM benchmarks overlook the importance of repeatability (precision) despite its impact on real-world deployments. TaskSLAM-Bench, a task-driven approach to SLAM benchmarking, addresses this gap. It employs precision as a key metric, accounts for SLAM’s mapping capabilities, and has easy-to-meet requirements. Simulated and real-world evaluation of SLAM methods provide insights into the navigation performance of modern visual and LiDAR SLAM solutions. The outcomes show that passive stereo SLAM precision may match that of 2D LiDAR SLAM in indoor environments. TaskSLAM-Bench complements existing benchmarks and offers richer assessment of SLAM performance in navigation-focused scenarios. Publicly available code permits in-situ SLAM testing in custom environments with properly equipped robots.
