OSDaR-AR
Enhancing OSDaR23 via Augmented Reality
OSDaR-AR
OSDaR-AR is an augmented version of OSDaR23 obtained through augmented reality (AR)
The dataset is intended for benchmarking tasks such as obstacle and intrusion detection in realistic railway environments.
Key features:
- Cropped RGB stickers of the rendered obstacles (for both rgb_center and rgb_highres_center cameras)
- Corresponding segmentation mask of each obstacle
- Modified point-cloud data that include the obstacle (with obstacle segmentation)
- 6 different obstacles for the following OSDaR23 sequences: 3_fire_site_3.1 - 5_station_bergedorf_5.2 - 6_station_klein_flottbek_6.1.
For licensing reasons, each sequence is released as a set of "stickers" generated with our custom UE5 simulator. The interested user must first download and extract the original OSDaR23 sequences that can be found here.
The final dataset can be generated by running the dedicated python script included in each released dataset sequence. The python script will combine original OSDaR23 images and our augmentations and produce the final dataset.
OSDaR-AR was submitted for publication.

The Dataset
OSDaR-AR Samples
The images and videos showed on this page have a purely illustrative purpose. Original OSDaR23 images are not included in the released dataset and must be downloaded separately.
