# SAE 2026 Manometer Detection Dataset

Object detection dataset for analog manometer (pressure gauge) detection used by Black Bee Drones in the SAE 2026 competition.

## Dataset Structure

| Split | Images |
|-------|--------|
| train | 11422 |
| validation | 2438 |

**Total images:** 13860

**Classes:** `manometer-wvhf`, `manometer`

**Annotation format:** COCO bbox `[x_min, y_min, width, height]`.

## Usage

### Load with HuggingFace Datasets

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("blackbeedrones/sae-2026-manometer")
example = dataset["train"][0]
print(example["objects"])
```

### Use with Nectar SDK

```python
from nectar.ai.detection.datasets import HuggingFaceHandler

handler = HuggingFaceHandler("data/local")
handler.download(repo_id="blackbeedrones/sae-2026-manometer", format_type="coco")
# data/local now contains train/_annotations.coco.json and image files
```
