The PolaBot Dataset.Outdoor Polarimetric Imaging
|
PolaBot is a dataset dedicated to the polarimetric imaging of outdoor scenes.
Outdoor scenes include challenging surfaces to segment and detect : highly reflective areas such as water and windows.
To the best of our knowledge, no such specific dataset has been released yet. This dataset is designed for research and development fields such as mobile robotics, autonomous cars and navigation, ... In addition, this collection of information will allow a strong and efficient benchmark, giving the opportunity to compare standard modality to the polarimetry for the exact same scenes and application.
Setup
Acquisitions were conducted with a multi-modal system of four calibrated cameras. Three synchronized modalities are represented: two RGB (Red Green Blue) cameras from different angles, one NIR (Near-Infrared) camera and one polarimetric camera.
