| # Copyright, Licensing and Attribution Notice |
|
|
| ## Summary |
|
|
| This repository mirrors 3D assets that were **created by third parties**, together with metadata |
| derived from them. Two different sets of rights apply, and they must not be confused. |
|
|
| | Part of the repository | Rights | |
| |---|---| |
| | `glb/` — the 7,373 asset files | Owned by their **original creators**. Each object keeps the licence attached to it upstream. Nothing in this repository grants you any right to them. | |
| | `metadata.csv`, `animations.csv`, `scripts/`, `README.md`, this notice | Produced by the repository author from public structural properties of the files. Offered under **ODC-BY 1.0**, matching the licence of the upstream Objaverse metadata. | |
|
|
| Publishing these files here is **not** a licence grant, a sublicence, or a claim of ownership |
| over any asset. |
|
|
| ## Where the assets come from |
|
|
| Every file was obtained from [Objaverse and Objaverse-XL](https://objaverse.allenai.org/) |
| (Allen Institute for AI), which aggregates 3D objects from sources including Sketchfab and |
| public GitHub repositories. Objaverse-XL does not relicense what it indexes: each object remains |
| under whatever terms its creator applied — commonly a Creative Commons variant for Sketchfab |
| objects, and the licence of the containing repository for GitHub-sourced objects. Some objects |
| carry terms that restrict commercial use or require attribution; some carry no explicit licence |
| at all. |
|
|
| **There is therefore no single licence covering `glb/`, and none is asserted here.** |
|
|
| ## Before you use an asset |
|
|
| Filenames are deliberately unchanged so that every file is traceable. The `object_id` column in |
| `metadata.csv` is the upstream identifier: |
|
|
| - `<32-hex>.glb` — an Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab UID |
| - `<24-hex>_{fbx,glb,gltf}.glb` — an Objaverse-XL object; the suffix records its original format |
|
|
| Resolve the licence and author for a given `object_id` through the Objaverse-XL annotations, |
| which carry per-object `license`, `fileIdentifier` and source fields. Determining whether your |
| intended use is permitted — and complying with any attribution requirement — is your |
| responsibility as the user of the asset, not something this repository can settle for you. |
|
|
| ## Purpose of this mirror |
|
|
| The collection is published to support reproducible research on skeletal animation and motion |
| generation. It is a convenience copy of material that is already publicly indexed; it adds no |
| rights and removes none. |
|
|
| ## Requests for removal |
|
|
| If you are a rights holder and an asset here should not be redistributed, it will be removed. |
| Open an issue or a discussion on this dataset repository identifying the `object_id` or filename |
| and your relationship to the work, and the file will be taken down promptly, without requiring |
| you to demonstrate anything further. |
|
|
| ## Attribution |
|
|
| Assets: the individual creators of each object. |
| Aggregation and identifiers: Objaverse and Objaverse-XL, Allen Institute for AI. |
