**Pano-Infinigen** is a synthetic dataset of high-resolution panoramic images in [ERP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equirectangular_projection), featuring perfectly aligned RGB, Depth, and Surface Normals. This dataset was generated using a modified [Infinigen](https://infinigen.org/) framework to support wide-angle panoramic geometry.

It serves as the primary training data for [PaGeR](https://pager360.github.io/), a single-step diffusion model for zero-shot panoramic depth and normal estimation.

## Dataset Summary
- **Content:** Synthetic indoor and outdoor(nature) scenes.
- **Modality:** RGB (PNG), Depth (binary .npy), Surface Normals (binary .npy).
- **Projection:** Equirectangular (ERP).
- **Use Case:** Training and evaluating monocular panoramic depth and normal estimation models.

## Data Structure
The dataset is split into two configurations: `indoor` and `nature`. Each contains `train`, `validation`, and `test` splits.

| Feature | Type | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `image` | `PIL.Image` | 8-bit RGB Panoramic Image. |
| `depth` | `binary` | **float16** NumPy array. Range: [0, 75] meters. |
| `normals` | `binary` | **float16** NumPy array. Range: [-1, 1]. |



## How to Use
Since `depth` and `normals` are stored as binary blobs to preserve precision (float16), you need to use `io.BytesIO` to load them back into NumPy.

```python
import io
import numpy as np
from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the indoor training split
ds = load_dataset("prs-eth/PanoInfinigen", name="indoor", split="train")

sample = ds[0]

# 1. Get RGB Image
rgb = sample["image"]

# 2. Convert Binary Depth to NumPy (float16, 0-75m)
depth = np.load(io.BytesIO(sample["depth"]))

# 3. Convert Binary Normals to NumPy (float16, -1 to 1)
normals = np.load(io.BytesIO(sample["normals"]))
