Image showing an overview of the C3I Synthetic Human Dataset

The C3I Synthetic Human Dataset provides 48 female and 84 male synthetic 3D humans in fbx format generated from iClone 7 Character creator “Realistic Human 100” toolkit with variations in ethnicity, gender, race, age, and clothing. For each of these, it further provides the full-body model with five different facial expressions – Neutral, Angry, Sad, Happy, and Scared. Along with the body models, it also open-sources a data generation pipeline written in python to bring those models into a 3D Computer Graphics tool called Blender. This framework, along with the virtual human models, can generate extensive synthetic facial datasets (e.g., Head Pose, Face Depths) with a high degree of control over facial and environmental variations such as pose, illumination, and background. Such large datasets can be used for improved, targeted training of deep neural networks.
