Welcome
to the KIT object models database on the web! Please read the following sections before making use of the object models.
You are free to use the object models for your own research or other non-commercial purposes, and we strongly encourage their application as a benchmark e.g. for your image processing research. When using this object data, please send us a short notice about your purpose and research goals - we would be happy to hear about what the object models are applied for and about what has been particularly useful to you (or what is still missing in your opinion).
When using the object data, please also keep in mind that the data compilation and the underlying research have been funded by the German Collaborative Research Center 588 "Humanoid Robots" and by the German Service Robotics Initiative "Desire". The relevant publications can be found in the publications section.
