A Blender user-interface to generate synthetic ground truth data (benchmarks) for Computer Vision applications.
To install the addon simply go to Edit > Preferences > Add-on tab > Install an add-on
, then select the file path/to/vision_blender/addon_ground_truth_generation.py and click Install Add-on.
Finally you have to enable the add-on; Search VisionBlender and tick the check-box.
You should now be able to find the VisionBlender UI in th bottom of the Output Properties.
Simply tick the boxes of what you want to save as ground truth in the VisionBlender UI.
Then start rendering and the outputs will be generated automatically.
To render you click Render > Render Image or Render > Render Animation..., alternatively you can click F12 for image and Ctrl F12 for animation.
You can change the output path in Output Properties > Output > Output Path.
Note: Segmentation masks and Optical flow are only available in Cycles.
To set-up the segmentation masks you need to choose a pass index for each object:
Object Properties > Relations > Pass Index
You will only have optical flow if the camera or the objects are moving during an animation.
You simply have to load the numpy arrays from thr .npz files.
Go to the vision_blender/samples and have a look at the example there!
