Per-session camera intrinsics/extrinsics and inertial additive/multiplicative bias parameters.
Known or intentional limitations
Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.
Twenty-three recordings span 4.47 km and 68 minutes across six places, with nineteen indoor and four outdoor recordings. Elevators, escalators, crowds and poor texture can challenge visual-only motion estimates.
Reference pose reuses the released iPhone IMU and manually mapped position fixes. Assumed 25 cm fix noise is not a measured independent trajectory-accuracy bound.
Tango video is documented at roughly 5 fps and pressure at irregular roughly 1 Hz; main-table values differ. Consult the maintained format and timestamps rather than assuming a uniform fixed rate.
Pixel supplies ARCore poses without established raw camera/IMU inputs. Tango point-cloud timing is irregular; proprietary API pose products are estimates rather than independent reference systems.
Initial NTP alignment is refined by motion correlation, but achieved final timing error and independent orientation/position accuracy remain unknown. CoreLocation is a combined platform location API.
