| Abstract | Over the last decade, the availability of public image repositories and recognition benchmarks has enabled rapid progress in visual object category and instance detection. Today we are witnessing the birth of a new generation of sensing technologies capable of providing high quality synchronized videos of both color and depth, the RGB-D (Kinect-style) camera. With its advanced sensing capabilities and the potential for mass adoption, this technology represents an opportunity to dramatically increase robotic object recognition, manipulation, navigation, and interaction capabilities. We introduce a large-scale, hierarchical multi-view object dataset collected using an RGB-D camera. The dataset consists of two parts: The RGB-D Object Dataset containing views of 300 objects organized into 51 categories, and the RGB-D Scenes Dataset containing 8 video sequences of office and kitchen environments. The dataset has been made publicly available to the research community so as to enable rapid progress based on this promising technology. We describe the dataset collection procedure and present techniques for RGB-D object recognition and detection of objects in scenes recorded using RGB-D videos, demonstrating that combining color and depth information substantially improves quality of results. |
