Dataset Card for Botany-Bot

The Botany-Bot dataset contains data from 8 potted plants collected using a lightbox and digital turntable at AUTOLab @UC Berkeley, USA.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

There are eight plants folder in this dataset: Alocasia, Anthurium, Belize, Croton, Pepper 1, Pepper 2, Pepper 3, Princess Pink.

Data in each plant folder is in the Nerfstudio format containing depth, images, images_2, images_4, images_8, and masks folders. Each folder also includes a transforms.json file.

Dataset Sources

Dataset Structure

  • depth/: depth images
  • images/: raw images
  • images_x/: images downscaled by a factor of x
  • masks/: segmentation masks for every image following the Nerfstudio convention for masks.
  • transforms.json: contains details required in Nerfstudio format including assigned pose transforms of images, depth file path, masks files path.

Personal and Sensitive Information

No personal or sensitive information is included in this dataset.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

While depth images are included in the Botany-Bot dataset, they were not used in our method and we have not validated them for accuracy.
