Shape Completion Challenge and Dataset

Description

In this challenge, you are tasked to provide a complete 3D mesh given a partial RGB-D observation of sweet peppers. You are provided with RGB-D frames with corresponding instance masks and poses where sweet peppers are only partially visible. We ask the participants to predict a 3D mesh representing the complete fruit. Obtaining such information is a fundamental building block for agricultural autonomous systems across different downstream tasks, such as harvesting and yield estimation.

Dataset Structure

To facilitate developments based on our data, we provide a visual representation of the data structure.

Codalab Submission
