While there are several widely used object detection datasets, current computer vision algorithms are still limited in conventional images. Such images narrow our vision in a restricted region. On the other hand, 360 images provide a thorough sight. In this paper, our goal is to provide a standard dataset to facilitate the vision and machine learning communities in 360 domain. To facilitate the research, we present a real-world 360 panoramic object detection dataset, 360-Indoor, which is a new benchmark for visual object detection and class recognition in 360 indoor images. It is achieved by gathering images of complex indoor scenes containing common objects and the intensive annotated bounding field-of-view. In addition, 360-Indoor has several distinct properties: (1) the largest category number (37 labels in total). (2) the most complete annotations on average (27 bounding boxes per image). The selected 37 objects are all common in indoor scene. With around 3k images and 90k labels in total, 360-Indoor achieves the largest dataset for detection in 360 images. In the end, extensive experiments on the state-of-the-art methods for both classification and detection are provided. We will release this dataset in the near future.
