RadarRGBD A Multi-Sensor Fusion Dataset for Perception with RGB-D and mmWave Radar

원문 초록

Multi-sensor fusion has significant potential in perception tasks for both indoor and outdoor environments. Especially under challenging conditions such as adverse weather and low-light environments, the combined use of millimeter-wave radar and RGB-D sensors has shown distinct advantages. However, existing multi-sensor datasets in the fields of autonomous driving and robotics often lack high-quality millimeter-wave radar data. To address this gap, we present a new multi-sensor dataset:RadarRGBD. This dataset includes RGB-D data, millimeter-wave radar point clouds, and raw radar matrices, covering various indoor and outdoor scenes, as well as low-light environments. Compared to existing datasets, RadarRGBD employs higher-resolution millimeter-wave radar and provides raw data, offering a new research foundation for the fusion of millimeter-wave radar and visual sensors. Furthermore, to tackle the noise and gaps in depth maps captured by Kinect V2 due to occlusions and mismatches, we fine-tune an open-source relative depth estimation framework, incorporating the absolute depth information from the dataset for depth supervision. We also introduce pseudo-relative depth scale information to further optimize the global depth scale estimation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method effectively fills in missing regions in sensor data.
