Overview

CMU Panoptic is a large scale dataset providing 3D pose annotations (1.5 millions) for multiple people engaging social activities. It contains 65 videos (5.5 hours) with multi-view annotations, but only 17 of them are in multi-person scenario and have the camera parameters.

Massively Multiview System

  • 480 VGA camera views
  • 30+ HD views
  • 10 RGB-D sensors
  • Hardware-based sync
  • Calibration
  • Interesting Scenes with Labels

Multiple people

  • Socially interacting groups
  • 3D body pose
  • 3D facial landmarks
  • Transcripts + speaker ID

Hardware setup

  • 480 VGA cameras, 640 x 480 resolution, 25 fps, synchronized among themselves using a hardware clock
  • 31 HD cameras, 1920 x 1080 resolution, 30 fps, synchronized among themselves using a hardware clock, timing aligned with VGA cameras
  • 10 Kinect Ⅱ Sensors. 1920 x 1080 (RGB), 512 x 424 (depth), 30 fps, timing aligned among themselves and other sensors
    5 DLP Projectors. synchronized with HD cameras
