This package contains the Freiburg Terrains dataset that was introduced in the paper "Self-Supervised Visual Terrain Classification from Unsupervised Acoustic Feature Learning". It contains a total of 24324 images that were collected using a ZED stereo camera using our OBELIX robot platform on the University of Freiburg campus and neighboring areas. It also contains the respective audio recordings obtained with a directional microphone mounted close to the wheels of the robots. We used a highly accurate LiDAR based SLAM system to obtain pose labels. For more details regarding the data collection procedure please refer to the original publication.

DESCRIPTION

The full dataset contains the following parts


*	audio 			Contains the time-synchronized audio recordings from the onboard microphone.

*	camera_poses	The file `ri_slam_solution_final.gm2dl` contains the robot pose graph in format `x, y, z, qw, qx, qy, qz`, and the file `velodyne_timestamps.txt` comtains the UNIX timestamp for each pose.

*	rgb 			Contains the RGB images obtained from the ZED-camera and a file with the UNIX timestamp of each image.
