Multiview Dataset Toolkit

• Using multi-view cameras is a natural way to obtain a complete point cloud. However, there is to date only one multi-view 3D hand pose dataset– NYU. Furthermore, NYU is primarily used as a depth map dataset; although they also provided the RGB images, these RGB images are of low resolution and quality. FreiHand also records data using a multi- view setup, but the released images are not from corresponding viewpoints. In that sense, it can be regarded only as a single-view dataset containing multiple views rather than a true multi-view dataset.
• To fill this gap, we present a new multi-view RGB-D 3D hand pose dataset. We use four RealSense D415 cameras in different views to record 4 RGB-D sequences from 4 subjects and the resolution of our recorded dataset is 640 × 480. We use a 21-joint model to annotate the hand pose. Additionally, we provide hand masks, 2D and 3D joint locations, hand meshes in the form of MANO parameters, real complete hand point clouds and full camera parameters. In particular, we provide extrinsic camera parameters so it is easy for users to use multi-view information.
