ICRA 2017 – Change Detection Datasets

This dataset suite presents three indoor change-detection scenarios collected by the Autonomous Systems Lab (ASL) at ETH Zurich. The corresponding publication is linked above.
Dataset Description
The dataset contains three indoor environments:
- office – A controlled office scene with four tripod static observations.
- lounge – A challenging meeting-area/office lounge, hand-held recordings over two weeks, frequent object changes, varying overlap ~50–100%.
- living_room – A baseline scene with nine hand-held recordings in a controlled indoor environment, high overlap and multiple viewpoints.
Each scenario provides sequences of RGB-D (and potentially point cloud) data, dense reconstructions, and change annotations for use in benchmarking change-detection and dynamic-object-discovery algorithms.
