Motion Blur/Motion Blur Free Dataset

 

Introduction

The Motion Blur/Motion Blur Free Dataset consists of 16 stereo videos showing a non-static scene. The cameras were assembled on a 3-D mirror rig and not moved during the recording. They captured the scene with different exposures to obtain blurry and sharp frames of objects moving in front of the camera. Some objects were even printed, such that their geomery and texture are known.

Acquisition

Setup: Two cameras were assembled on a 3-D mirror rig to capture the scene from nearly the same point of view:

Both cameras captured the scene with a resolution of 4096x2160 at 25fps, except for the videos Juggler3 and Juggler4 with 50fps. The exposure of the camera capturing blurry frames was set to 150.50deg in nearly all setups and the exposure of the other camera to 18.00deg. Exceptions are the Juggler videos (exposure times are written above the videos). The cameras were synchronized such that their exposure intervals end at the same time. To ensure a correct synchronization of the cameras, we recorded a Camera Synchronization Running Light. A ND-Filter was used on the camera captuering the scene with the longer exposure to obtain the same brightness in both videos.

Printed 3-D Objects:

Beside these printed 3-D objects we captured also some people juggling with different balls, calibration bodies, a Camera Synchronization Running Light and planar objects (textured aluminium boards and a Color Checkerboard).
