Hi,

No, multi-robots mapping the same map online is not supported. You may have multiple RTAB-Map running at the same time, but they won't find loop closures between them online. However offline, it could be done by processing back each created database one after the other in one RTAB-Map (like having multi-sessions of the same robot), then loop closures could be found between the maps if the robots visited the same areas.

RTAB-Map doesn't support multiple cameras on the same robot (unless with this hack for 2 kinects).

Cheers,
Mathieu
