This repository provides a toolkit for Avatar dataset — dataset of human torso videos recorded on smartphone with estimated camera trajectory. Also, depth data from the depth sensor is recorded along with every video with sub-millisecond synchronization between frames.

Main hardware used:

• Samsung S10e
• Azure Kinect DK

Dataset is located HERE: add link

The dataset contains 200 people recorded in different poses and different locations. Folder numbers in the root directory (000, ..., 200) present the order number of the recorded person. Every person folder contains 5 records named by date with 5 different static poses: 3 in staying position, 2 in sitting position. Every record contains synchronized data from the smartphone (Samsung S10e), depth sensor (Azure Kinect DK), and external IMU sensor. The recordings were performed with periodical flash blinking (1 Hz).

_azure_depth_camera_info -- intrinsic parameters of a depth camera in ROS format

_azure_depth_image_raw -- 1-channel float array 640x576 (distance is presented in meters), name represents a moment of capturing (nanoseconds)

_mcu_imu -- data from external IMU (3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer), every line contains 7 values <timestamp (nanoseconds), gyro-x, gyro-y, gyro-z, accel-x, accel-y, accel-z>

smartphone_video_frames -- video recorded on the smartphone (.mp4), exact timestamps of frames in the video (_aligned_timestamps.csv, nanoseconds), timestamps of moments with flash turned on (_aligned_flash.csv, nanoseconds), data from built-in smartphone gyroscope (_aligned_gyro.csv, <gyro-x, gyro-y, gyro-z, nanoseconds>).

CameraTrajectory.txt -- trajectory obtained from ORB SLAM, every line contains a timestamp (seconds) and pose quaternion.

Calibration parameters of the setup are kept in the dictionary format in setup_parameters.json and could be accessed in the next way:

import json
param = read('setup_parameters.json')

# RGB data from smartphone (intrinsics)
param['rgb']['dist_mtx'] -- 3x3 matrix
param['rgb']['dist_coef'] -- 8x1 array
param['rgb']['undist_mtx'] -- 3x3 matrix

# Depth data from Azure Kinect (intrinsics)
param['depth']['dist_mtx'] -- 3x3 matrix
param['depth']['dist_coef'] -- 8x1 array
param['depth']['undist_mtx'] -- 3x3 matrix

# Extrinsic transformation between RGB camera and depth camera
param['T'] -- 4x4 transformation matrix

TODO -- zhores CLI API for effective data downloading

Performs final extraction of the dataset sequence, splits video to frames with aligned timestamps.

- Python
- FFmpeg

Run ./local_extract.sh <PATH_TO_SEQUENCE_DIRECTORY> <optional> --split. Use --split option to split the sequence to subsequences.

Perfoms conversion of a video to tom format with masks and corrected masks.
