Pioneer

Image Database for Vision-Based Self-Localization in Mobile Robotics

Image datasets recorded with an optical camera onboard a Pioneer robot. Each dataset represents a path along the corridors of the Facultad de Informática de San Sebastián building and is composed of six different walks along the same path. Along with each walk, a .txt file with the reference odometry positions is provided.
Due storage limitations, only the low resolution (79x61) images are available for download. Higher resolution images (314x242) could be provided upon request.

• First sample path, low resolution (Download).
  • Matlab .mat file.
• Second sample path, low resolution (Download).
• Third sample path, low resolution (Download).
• Fourth sample path, low resolution (Download).
• Fifth sample path, low resolution (Download).
