### What is wheel odometry and how does it help T265 navigate?

Wheel odometry is the use of sensors to measure how much a wheel turns, it can be used to estimate changes in a wheeled robots position. T265 has wheel odometry support built in, allowing it to use the data from these sensors to refine the position data of the robot. Providing robotic wheel odometer or velocimeter data over USB to TM2 will make the tracking much more robust on wheeled robots, which otherwise can experience many tracking failures. We consider odometer input to be a requirement for robust tracking on wheeled robots.

Should be T265 instead of TM2 in "Providing robotic wheel odometer or velocimeter data over USB to TM2 will make the tracking..."
