Parameters only

Processed calibration parameters are reported, but raw calibration data is not reported.

Notes

D435i intrinsics use Kalibr with 0.66 px mean projection error. IMU noise uses Allan variance from a four-hour static recording. CAD-derived LiDAR-camera-base extrinsics are refined with Kalibr and validated by point-cloud/image alignment. Release of the static raw recording is not established.

Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

Single quadruped platform with fixed locomotion protocol; aborted sequences are retained.

Event labels begin with velocity-error candidate selection and subsequent human review.

RGB: 640x480, 69 degree HFOV, 8 ms exposure and dynamic gain. Depth: stereo IR, 85.2 degree HFOV and 58 degree VFOV; table lists range 0.3–3.0 m. RGB and depth both recorded at 15 Hz. Combined-system resolution and FOV are left null because these figures describe different streams.

Notes
Twelve actuators recorded in /lowstate at 300 Hz; this counts measurements rather than additional IMUs.

Notes
Foot forces and battery voltage/current are included in /lowstate at 300 Hz.

Joystick inputs
Count
1
Notes
Raw joystick inputs permit estimation of commanded velocities; 1 m/s is the forward command limit.
