slambook2 is the updated companion codebase for the second edition of 14 Lectures on Visual SLAM: From Theory to Practice. It preserves the chapter-by-chapter learning structure while revising examples for newer systems and libraries. The repository teaches the mathematical and programming foundations required to understand visual SLAM implementations. Its C++ exercises cover geometry, Lie theory, cameras, image processing, optimization, visual odometry, mapping, and loop closure. Chapter folders let readers study individual techniques before connecting them into broader localization and mapping pipelines. Supplemental files include errata, exercise solutions, notes, figures, and small demonstrations of matrix and coordinate operations. It is intended for hands-on study and provides a clearer upgrade path than the original edition.
