New AWS Public Data Set - Amazon Bin Image Data Set
Today, the Amazon Fulfillment Technologies team is releasing the Amazon Bin Image Data Set, which is made up of over 1,000 images of bins inside an Amazon Fulfillment Center. Each image is accompanied by metadata describing the contents of the bin in the image. This is a limited release, and several hundred thousand images will be released this fall. Learn more about the data set on its Public Data Set landing page.
Additionally, the Amazon Academic Research Awards (AARA) program is soliciting computer vision research proposals for the first time. Proposals can focus on any relevant area of computer vision research. Research that can be applied to multiple problems and data sets is preferred and AARA specifically encourages submissions considering the Amazon Bin Image Data Set.
