首个面向温室农业的多传感器数据集,助力机器人精准定位与建图。
HortiMulti: A Multi-Sensor Dataset for Localisation and Mapping in Horticultural Polytunnels
- 在草莓与树莓温室内跨季节采集多模态数据,涵盖动态植被与光照干扰。
- 包含3D LiDAR、RGB相机、IMU等传感器,提供高精度参考轨迹。
- 适合农业机器人感知算法研发者,尤其关注复杂温室内定位难题。
农业机器人在研究与实际部署中日益重要。随着系统需执行更复杂的自主任务,真实世界代表性数据集的可用性变得至关重要。尽管城市与林业机器人领域已有成熟基准,园艺环境仍相对未被充分探索,而该领域具有重要经济价值。为此,我们提出HortiMulti,一个跨季节、多模态的商用草莓与树莓温室内数据集,涵盖显著外观变化、动态植株、塑料顶棚镜面反射、严重感知混叠及GNSS不可靠等挑战,直接削弱现有定位与感知算法性能。传感器包括两个3D LiDAR、四个RGB相机、IMU、GNSS和轮式里程计。真值轨迹通过全站仪测量、AprilTag标记点与LiDAR-惯性里程计结合生成,覆盖密集、稀疏与无标记场景,支持在受控与真实条件下评估。我们发布同步原始数据、校准文件、参考轨迹与视觉、激光雷达及多传感器SLAM基线结果,证实当前最先进方法在温室内仍难以可靠部署,确立HortiMulti为园艺机器人感知系统研发的一站式资源。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Agricultural robotics is gaining increasing relevance in both research and real-world deployment. As these systems are expected to operate autonomously in more complex tasks, the availability of representative real-world datasets becomes essential. While domains such as urban and forestry robotics benefit from large and established benchmarks, horticultural environments remain comparatively under-explored despite the economic significance of this sector. To address this gap, we present HortiMulti, a multimodal, cross-season dataset collected in commercial strawberry and raspberry polytunnels across an entire growing season, capturing substantial appearance variation, dynamic foliage, specular reflections from plastic covers, severe perceptual aliasing, and GNSS-unreliable conditions, all of which directly degrade existing localisation and perception algorithms. The sensor suite includes two 3D LiDARs, four RGB cameras, an IMU, GNSS, and wheel odometry. Ground truth trajectories are derived from a combination of Total Station surveying, AprilTag fiducial markers, and LiDAR-inertial odometry, spanning dense, sparse, and marker-free coverage to support evaluation under both controlled and realistic conditions. We release time-synchronised raw measurements, calibration files, reference trajectories, and baseline benchmarks for visual, LiDAR, and multi-sensor SLAM, with results confirming that current state-of-the-art methods remain inadequate for reliable polytunnel deployment, establishing HortiMulti as a one-stop resource for developing and testing robotic perception systems in horticulture environments.
