T-LESS: An RGB-D Dataset for 6D Pose Estimation of Texture-less Objects
We introduce T-LESS, a new public dataset for estimating the 6D pose, i.e.
translation and rotation, of texture-less rigid objects. The dataset features
thirty industry-relevant objects with no significant texture and no
discriminative color or reflectance properties. The objects exhibit symmetries
and mutual similarities in shape and/or size. Compared to other datasets, a
unique property is that some of the objects are parts of others. The dataset
includes training and test images that were captured with three synchronized
sensors, specifically a structured-light and a time-of-flight RGB-D sensor and
a high-resolution RGB camera. There are approximately 39K training and 10K test
images from each sensor. Additionally, two types of 3D models are provided for
each object, i.e. a manually created CAD model and a semi-automatically
reconstructed one. Training images depict individual objects against a black
background. Test images originate from twenty test scenes having varying
complexity, which increases from simple scenes with several isolated objects to
very challenging ones with multiple instances of several objects and with a
high amount of clutter and occlusion. The images were captured from a
systematically sampled view sphere around the object/scene, and are annotated
with accurate ground truth 6D poses of all modeled objects. Initial evaluation
results indicate that the state of the art in 6D object pose estimation has
ample room for improvement, especially in difficult cases with significant
occlusion. The T-LESS dataset is available online at cmp.felk.cvut.cz/t-less.Comment: WACV 201
RGB-D datasets using microsoft kinect or similar sensors: a survey
RGB-D data has turned out to be a very useful representation of an indoor scene for solving fundamental computer vision problems. It takes the advantages of the color image that provides appearance information of an object and also the depth image that is immune to the variations in color, illumination, rotation angle and scale. With the invention of the low-cost Microsoft Kinect sensor, which was initially used for gaming and later became a popular device for computer vision, high quality RGB-D data can be acquired easily. In recent years, more and more RGB-D image/video datasets dedicated to various applications have become available, which are of great importance to benchmark the state-of-the-art. In this paper, we systematically survey popular RGB-D datasets for different applications including object recognition, scene classification, hand gesture recognition, 3D-simultaneous localization and mapping, and pose estimation. We provide the insights into the characteristics of each important dataset, and compare the popularity and the difficulty of those datasets. Overall, the main goal of this survey is to give a comprehensive description about the available RGB-D datasets and thus to guide researchers in the selection of suitable datasets for evaluating their algorithms
LabelFusion: A Pipeline for Generating Ground Truth Labels for Real RGBD Data of Cluttered Scenes
Deep neural network (DNN) architectures have been shown to outperform
traditional pipelines for object segmentation and pose estimation using RGBD
data, but the performance of these DNN pipelines is directly tied to how
representative the training data is of the true data. Hence a key requirement
for employing these methods in practice is to have a large set of labeled data
for your specific robotic manipulation task, a requirement that is not
generally satisfied by existing datasets. In this paper we develop a pipeline
to rapidly generate high quality RGBD data with pixelwise labels and object
poses. We use an RGBD camera to collect video of a scene from multiple
viewpoints and leverage existing reconstruction techniques to produce a 3D
dense reconstruction. We label the 3D reconstruction using a human assisted
ICP-fitting of object meshes. By reprojecting the results of labeling the 3D
scene we can produce labels for each RGBD image of the scene. This pipeline
enabled us to collect over 1,000,000 labeled object instances in just a few
days. We use this dataset to answer questions related to how much training data
is required, and of what quality the data must be, to achieve high performance
from a DNN architecture
3D Object Reconstruction from Hand-Object Interactions
Recent advances have enabled 3d object reconstruction approaches using a
single off-the-shelf RGB-D camera. Although these approaches are successful for
a wide range of object classes, they rely on stable and distinctive geometric
or texture features. Many objects like mechanical parts, toys, household or
decorative articles, however, are textureless and characterized by minimalistic
shapes that are simple and symmetric. Existing in-hand scanning systems and 3d
reconstruction techniques fail for such symmetric objects in the absence of
highly distinctive features. In this work, we show that extracting 3d hand
motion for in-hand scanning effectively facilitates the reconstruction of even
featureless and highly symmetric objects and we present an approach that fuses
the rich additional information of hands into a 3d reconstruction pipeline,
significantly contributing to the state-of-the-art of in-hand scanning.Comment: International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) 2015,

An Immersive Telepresence System using RGB-D Sensors and Head Mounted Display
We present a tele-immersive system that enables people to interact with each
other in a virtual world using body gestures in addition to verbal
communication. Beyond the obvious applications, including general online
conversations and gaming, we hypothesize that our proposed system would be
particularly beneficial to education by offering rich visual contents and
interactivity. One distinct feature is the integration of egocentric pose
recognition that allows participants to use their gestures to demonstrate and
manipulate virtual objects simultaneously. This functionality enables the
instructor to ef- fectively and efficiently explain and illustrate complex
concepts or sophisticated problems in an intuitive manner. The highly
interactive and flexible environment can capture and sustain more student
attention than the traditional classroom setting and, thus, delivers a
compelling experience to the students. Our main focus here is to investigate
possible solutions for the system design and implementation and devise
strategies for fast, efficient computation suitable for visual data processing
and network transmission. We describe the technique and experiments in details
and provide quantitative performance results, demonstrating our system can be
run comfortably and reliably for different application scenarios. Our
preliminary results are promising and demonstrate the potential for more
compelling directions in cyberlearning.Comment: IEEE International Symposium on Multimedia 201
RGBD Datasets: Past, Present and Future
Since the launch of the Microsoft Kinect, scores of RGBD datasets have been
released. These have propelled advances in areas from reconstruction to gesture
recognition. In this paper we explore the field, reviewing datasets across
eight categories: semantics, object pose estimation, camera tracking, scene
reconstruction, object tracking, human actions, faces and identification. By
extracting relevant information in each category we help researchers to find
appropriate data for their needs, and we consider which datasets have succeeded
in driving computer vision forward and why.
Finally, we examine the future of RGBD datasets. We identify key areas which
are currently underexplored, and suggest that future directions may include
synthetic data and dense reconstructions of static and dynamic scenes.Comment: 8 pages excluding references (CVPR style
