+# RGB-D Segment Egocentric Bodies Dataset
+
+## Overview and Dataset Description
+
+The **RGB-D Segment Egocentric Bodies Inclusive Validatio Dataset** is a set of 3003 validation images for the purpose of **egocentric segmentation**. 
+The dataset includes multiple users representing a diverse range of skin tones, covering the full spectrum of the Fitzpatrick skin type scale.
+The dataset is intended to support research in **XR/VR/AR**, **human–computer interaction**, and **bias mitigation**.
+
+The dataset is comprised of 33 users, for each of them the following set of videos were created twice with two different outfits. We decide to 
+create a new user for the second version of the dataset, making a total of 66 effective users.
+
+For each user, there are 16 videos, resulting from the combination of 2 standing actions × 2 outfits, plus 2 seated actions × 3 table scenarios × 2 outfits. 
+
+The standing actions are:
+
+-Walking while looking forward
+-Walking while looking at a mobile phone
+
+which were done in the 3 following table scenarios:
+
+-Red table with a white wall
+-White table with a white wall
+-Wooden table with a black wall
+
+The seated actions are:
+
+-Typing on a computer keyboard
+-Writing on paper
+
+The pixel-wise annotation of these images is work in progress
