# Dataset Details |
|
|
|
This dataset contains paired tactile and force data, intended for use in predicting 3-axis normal and shear forces applied to the sensor's elastomer. We used three different indenter shapes to collect force-labeled data: hemisphere, sharp, and flat. To measure force ground truths, we employed the ATI nano17 force/torque sensor. The protocol consisted of applying a random normal load (up to 5N) followed by a shear load, achieved by sliding the probe 2mm on the sensor's elastomer. An illustration of the protocol is shown below: |

## Uses |
|
|
|
This dataset includes aligned tactile data, 3-axis force, and slip labels using the DIGIT sensor. It is designed to evaluate the performance of [Sparsh encoders](https://huggingface.co/collections/facebook/sparsh-67167ce57566196a4526c328) in understanding tactile properties such as force estimation and slip detection. Note that slip labels {0: no_slip, 1:slip} were obtain indirectlty via the friction cone method. |

## Dataset Structure |
|
|
|
The dataset consists a collection of normal/shear load trajectories for each probe. The structure is as follows: |
|
|
|
```bash |
|
sphere |
|
├── batch_1 |
|
│ ├── dataset_digit_00.pkl |
|
│ ├── ... |
|
│ ├── dataset_digit_03.pkl |
|
│ ├── dataset_slip_forces.pkl |
|
├── batch_2 |

|
``` |
|
|
|
For each batch: |
|
- `dataset_digit_xy.pkl`: contains the binarized tactile images only. |
|
- `dataset_slip_forces.pkl`: it's a dictionary where each key represents a sliding trajectory. Each trajectory has the corresponding force and slip labels. |
|

|
```python |
|
def load_pickle_dataset(file_dataset): |
|
with open(file_dataset, "rb") as f: |
|
all_frames = pickle.load(f) |
|
return all_frames |
|
|
|
def load_bin_image(io_buf): |
|
img = Image.open(io.BytesIO(io_buf)) |
|
img = np.array(img) |
|
return img |
|
|
|
frames = load_pickle_dataset('sphere/batch_1/dataset_digit_00.pkl') |
|
img = load_bin_image(frames[0]) |
|
``` |
