ApolloCar3D: A Large 3D Car Instance Understanding Benchmark for Autonomous Driving

Understand

Autonomous driving has attracted remarkable attention from both industry and academia.

• An important task is to estimate 3D properties(e.g.translation, rotation and shape) of a moving or parked vehicle on the road.
• This task, while critical, is still under-researched in the computer vision community - partially owing to the lack of large scale and fully-annotated 3D car database suitable for autonomous driving research.
• In this paper, we contribute the first large-scale database suitable for 3D car instance understanding - ApolloCar3D.
