We have created a dataset of more than ten thousand 3D scans of real objects. To create the dataset, we recruited 70 operators, equipped them with consumer-grade mobile 3D scanning setups, and paid them to scan objects in their environments. The operators scanned objects of their choosing, outside the laboratory and without direct supervision by computer vision professionals. The result is a large and diverse collection of object scans: from shoes, mugs, and toys to grand pianos, construction vehicles, and large outdoor sculptures. We worked with an attorney to ensure that data acquisition did not violate privacy constraints. The acquired data was irrevocably placed in the public domain and is available freely.

The entire dataset, including both RGB-D scans and reconstructed models, is in the public domain . Any part of the dataset can be used for any purpose with proper attribution. If you use any of the data, please cite our technical report .

File Format

The RGB-D sequences were acquired with PrimeSense Carmine cameras. The resolution is 640×480, the frame rate is 30Hz. Each scan is packaged in a zip archive that contains consecutive color images stored as JPG and depth images stored as 16-bit PNG, where pixel values represent depth in millimeters. The first part of a file name indicates the frame number and the second part provides a time stamp in microseconds.

The focal length is 525 for both axes and the principal point is (319.5, 239.5). The depth images are registered to the color images.

The reconstructed models are all in PLY file format.
