# [Assembly101](https://assembly-101.github.io/) downloader
Assembly101 is a procedural activity dataset featuring 4321 videos of people assembling and disassembling 101 "take-apart" toy vehicles. Participants work without fixed instructions, and the sequences feature rich and natural variations in action ordering, mistakes, and corrections. Assembly101 is the first multi-view action dataset, with simultaneous static (8) and egocentric (4) recordings. Sequences are annotated with more than 100K coarse and 1M fine-grained action segments, and 18M 3D hand poses. We benchmark on three action understanding tasks: recognition, anticipation and temporal segmentation. Additionally, we propose a novel task of detecting mistakes. The unique recording format and rich set of annotations allow us to investigate generalization to new toys, cross-view transfer, long-tailed distributions, and pose vs. appearance. We envision that Assembly101 will serve as a new challenge to investigate various activity understanding problems.
The repo structure is as follows:
- `recordings`: containing all 362 recordings (12 views per recording - 8 fixed and 4 egocentric)
- `AssemblyPoses.zip`: containing 2D, 3D hand poses at 60fps, camera extrinsics and positions for all the 12 views, and hand-object crops (defined as 125% of the rectangular area enclosed by the 2D hand pose)
- `poses@60fps`: containing 3D hand poses generated at 60fps (please use 2D/3D hand poses in `AssemblyPoses.zip` for the latest cleaned version)
- `TSM_features`: containing per-frame visual features extracted by [TSM](https://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_ICCV_2019/papers/Lin_TSM_Temporal_Shift_Module_for_Efficient_Video_Understanding_ICCV_2019_paper.pdf)
- `DINOv2_features.zip`: containing per-frame DINOv2 (ViT-g/14) features for both full frame and the hand-object crops (refer to [HandFormer](https://github.com/s-shamil/HandFormer) for more details)

### Which `camera_IDs` correspond to which `views` ?
```
C10095_rgb : v1
C10115_rgb : v2
C10118_rgb : v3
C10119_rgb : v4
C10379_rgb : v5
C10390_rgb : v6
C10395_rgb : v7
C10404_rgb : v8
HMC_84346135_mono10bit or HMC_21176875_mono10bit : e1
HMC_84347414_mono10bit or HMC_21176623_mono10bit : e2
HMC_84355350_mono10bit or HMC_21110305_mono10bit : e3
HMC_84358933_mono10bit or HMC_21179183_mono10bit : e4
```
### Egocentric views camera ID mapping:
For some videos the camera ID for egocentric (monochrome) views starts with `HMC_8...` and for some they start with `HMC_2...`. This occurs due to the usage of different cameras for some of the videos. The camera ID mapping is as follows:
```
HMC_84346135_mono10bit : HMC_21176875_mono10bit
HMC_84347414_mono10bit : HMC_21176623_mono10bit
HMC_84355350_mono10bit : HMC_21110305_mono10bit
HMC_84358933_mono10bit : HMC_21179183_mono10bit
```
