It will be the units used during the calibration of the stereo camera (checkboard size). In general, the units will be in meters.

Hello again, I have tried using a stereo camera and i have a problem, the scale is not logical on high speed, i have tried moving in a straight line in the X direction for 100 meters on a speed 40 km/h and it gives not logical numbers, is that normal or I have a problem?
Thanks in advance

It could be a tracking problem, but units should always be the same. What kind of camera do you use? If the cameras are not synchronized, it may affect the scale when moving.

Hello thanks alot for your reply
What do you mean by tracking problem?
I’m using two synchronized leopard imaging cameras for stereo and for the calibration i used the camera calibration package

If visual odometry fails to or wrongly match features, it could create wrong transformations. Maybe I didn't understand what you mean by "it gives not logical numbers".

Sorry i meant the result is not logical, for example i drive for 100 meters in a straight line so the X in pose is supposed to be 100 in the odom topic but the result is 2
