RGB-D SLAM Dataset and Benchmark

Contact: Jürgen Sturm

We provide a large dataset containing RGB-D data and ground-truth data with the goal to establish a novel benchmark for the evaluation of visual odometry and visual SLAM systems. Our dataset contains the color and depth images of a Microsoft Kinect sensor along the ground-truth trajectory of the sensor. The data was recorded at full frame rate (30 Hz) and sensor resolution (640x480). The ground-truth trajectory was obtained from a high-accuracy motion-capture system with eight high-speed tracking cameras (100 Hz). Further, we provide the accelerometer data from the Kinect. Finally, we propose an evaluation criterion for measuring the quality of the estimated camera trajectory of visual SLAM systems.

How can I use the RGB-D Benchmark to evaluate my SLAM system?

  1. Run your favorite visual odometry/visual SLAM algorithm (for example, RGB-D SLAM)
  2. Save the estimated camera trajectory to a file (file formats, example trajectory)
  3. Evaluate your algorithm by comparing the estimated trajectory with the ground truth trajectory. We provide an automated evaluation tool to help you with the evaluation. There is also an online version of the tool.

Further remarks

  • Jose Luis Blanco has added our dataset to the mobile robot programming toolkit (MRPT) repository. The dataset (including example code and tools) can be downloaded here.
  • If you wish to publish your trajectories on our website (for example to allow others to directly compare with your results), please contact us.
  • As soon as enough methods have been evaluated, we plan to publish a joint evaluation paper. Contact us if you are interested in this.
  • If you have any questions about the dataset/benchmark/evaluation/file formats, please don't hesitate to contact Jürgen Sturm.
  • We are happy to share our data with other researchers. Please refer to the respective publication when using this data.
