Reproducible calibration data

Raw calibration data is reported, so users can reproduce or inspect the calibration process.

Notes

Camera intrinsics, camera-IMU extrinsics, aligned ground truth, and dedicated calibration sequences are provided.

Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

Independent automatic exposure control can produce different brightness and shutter times between the stereo cameras, although mid-exposure synchronization is preserved.

Dynamic motion can reduce Leica laser-tracker accuracy, so the nominal manufacturer accuracy may be optimistic for aggressive segments.

Vicon and onboard sensor data were recorded on separate systems without Vicon device timestamps; temporal offset and clock drift were estimated offline.
