XP Robotics Multi-Camera Egocentric Recordings

A multimodal multi-camera egocentric dataset released by XP Robotics. Each recording provides several synchronized first-person camera views together with inertial and audio signals, captured on an XP Robotics wearable multi-camera rig.

Overview

  • 38 recordings, 2.78 hours total
  • Up to 6 synchronized cameras per recording (front, down, side; left/right variants on some recordings)
  • Per-camera AV1 compressed video with a JSON timestamp map aligning frames to capture time
  • IMU on every recording; USB-microphone audio on most

Most recordings use a 3-camera setup (front / down / side); one uses a 6-camera setup. See metadata.csv for the exact camera set and audio availability per recording.

Recording schema

Topic Encoding Schema Description
/camera/<view>/image_raw/compressed protobuf foxglove.CompressedVideo AV1 video for each camera view
/camera/<view>/image_raw/compressed/timestamp_map json xphi.VideoTimestampMap Per-frame camera id, frame id, and capture timestamps
/imu/front protobuf xphi.Imu Inertial measurement (orientation, angular velocity, acceleration)
/audio/usb_mic/raw protobuf foxglove.RawAudio Microphone audio (when present)

Camera views across the dataset: front, down, side, and on some recordings front_left, front_right, down_left, down_right, side_left, side_right.

Files

  metadata.csv
  xphi_6cam_001.mcap
  xphi_6cam_002.mcap
  ...
  xphi_6cam_038.mcap

Files are named uniformly xphi_6cam_<NNN>.mcap, numbered by recording start time. metadata.csv lists each file with its camera count, camera set, audio/IMU presence, duration, size, start time, and message count.

Reading the data

Video, IMU, and audio use protobuf encoding; the timestamp maps use JSON. Decode the protobuf topics with the mcap and mcap-protobuf-support packages:

from mcap.reader import make_reader
from mcap_protobuf.decoder import DecoderFactory

with open("xphi_6cam_001.mcap", "rb") as f:
    reader = make_reader(f, decoder_factories=[DecoderFactory()])
    for schema, channel, message, proto in reader.iter_decoded_messages(
        topics=["/camera/front/image_raw/compressed", "/imu/front"]
    ):
        print(channel.topic, message.log_time)
pip install mcap mcap-protobuf-support

The JSON timestamp-map topics can be read directly from the raw message bytes as UTF-8 JSON.
