IILABS 3D: iilab Indoor LiDAR-based SLAM Dataset
Listed in INESC TEC Research Data Repository
The IILABS 3D dataset is a rigorously designed benchmark intended to advance research in 3D LiDAR-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithms within indoor environments.
Description
It provides a robust and diverse foundation for evaluating and enhancing SLAM techniques in complex indoor settings. The dataset was retrived in the Industry and Innovation Laboratory (iiLab) and comprises synchronized data from a suite of sensors—including four distinct 3D LiDAR sensors, a 2D LiDAR, an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), and wheel odometry—complemented by high-precision ground truth obtained via a Motion Capture (MoCap) system. **

Method
** Sensor data was captured using the Robot Operating System (ROS) framework’s rosbag record tool on a LattePanda 3 Delta embedded computer. Post-processing involved timestamp correction for the Xsens MTi-630 IMU via custom Python scripts. Ground-truth data was captured using an OptiTrack MoCap system featuring 24 high-resolution PrimeX 22 cameras.
These cameras were connected via Ethernet to a primary Windows computer running the Motive software (optitrack.com/software/motive), which processed the camera data. This Windows computer was then connected via Ethernet to a secondary Ubuntu machine running the NatNet 4 ROS driver (github.com/L2S-lab/natnet_ros_cpp). The driver published the data as ROS topics, which were recorded into rosbag files.
Additionally, temporal synchronization between the robot platform and the ground-truth system was achieved using the Network Time Protocol (NTP). Finally, the bag files were processed using the EVO open-source Python library (github.com/MichaelGrupp/evo) to convert the data into TUM format and adjust the initial position offsets for accurate SLAM odometry benchmarking. **Type of Instrument** Mobile Robot Platform: INESC TEC MRDT Modified Hangfa Discovery Q2 Platform.
