Reliable and accurate detection of fruits during the whole growth period has always been one sticking point and important bottleneck for achieving precise, intelligent and efficient orchard management. In order to deal with the insufficiency of sample scale and diversity in actual production scenes, we built this dataset by focusing on the application of fruit detection in typical orchard operation stages, such as fruit thinning, bagging and picking operations based on in-field shooting and data post-processing. The dataset covers the acquisition, classification, labeling, storage and use of multi-modal peach images during fruit thinning, bagging and picking stages under the different natural circumstances, including complex weather, illumination and occlusion. The dataset involves various modalities, such as visible light, depth and infrared with a total volume of 8.27GB. It can provide fundamental and valuable image resources for the following research areas, e.g., multi-modal image data fusion and object detection. In addition, the dataset can also be used as a standard library for deep learning modeling in big data environment with the important practical application value for promoting the research on fruit object detection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
