Images of Peppercorns Transported on a Chute - Recording 4

This data set comprises images of peppercorns on a chute. The images were recorded on the small-scale optical belt sorter Tablesort. A thorough description of the Tablesort system can be found in Georg Maier, Florian Pfaff, Christoph Pieper, Robin Gruna, Benjamin Noack, Harald Kruggel-Emden, Thomas Längle, Uwe D. Hanebeck, Jürgen Beyerer, Experimental Evaluation of a Novel Sensor-Based Sorting Approach Featuring Predictive Real-Time Multiobject Tracking, Transactions on Industrial Electronics, February 2020. See also the project website. This dataset is part of a batch of recordings on optical sorters. Please use the search function with the keyword "Tobias Hornberger" (in quotes) to find them. The camera was recorded on a Bonito CL-400C. The calibration image for the extrinsic parameters can be found in calibration_extrinsics.png for the extrinsics and calibration_color.png for the color calibration. Please see the debayer script on GitHub. The frame rate is 192.9 Hz. Algorithms for two key challenges can be developed and evaluated on the data sets: Multitarget tracking for predicting the particle’s motion. This can be used to enhance the separation of optical sorters. For further details on this, see the publications Florian Pfaff, Marcus Baum, Benjamin Noack, Uwe D.

Classification of particles. The classification may use a multitarget tracker to accumulate visual features over time. One can also use the information on the trajectory to classify the particles.
