Accuracy notes
Paper states millimetre-level accuracy without a precise numeric bound.
Reference notes
UAV trajectories are confined to the Vicon lab. Reference apparatus is not counted as a released input sensor.

Parameters only

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

Notes

Sensor extrinsics and camera intrinsics are supplied, with coordinate-frame records. Most extrinsics use the D435 RGB frame. Thermal/RGB uses a hot laptop and acrylic mask; LiDAR/RGB a chessboard corner; radar/LiDAR a metallic corner reflector; IMU/RGB Kalibr with AprilTag. Raw calibration sequence availability is not established.

Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

UAV coverage is limited to the Vicon room, while other platforms span multiple buildings.

UGV and handheld references are pseudo ground truth from odometry rather than independent external tracking.

Recordings include darkness, glare, high dynamic range, textureless walls and moving humans.

Notes
One RGBD system per handheld or UGV rig. Handheld RGB is 20 Hz; UGV RGB is 30 Hz; depth is 30 Hz on both. RGB is 8-bit and depth is 16-bit, both 640x480. No separate released stereo image streams or integrated IMU are inferred from the device name.
