Codec Avatar Studio (Ava-256 + Goliath datasets)
Paired dome scans and headset footage of 256 people, released open
Latest: NeurIPS 2024 release (code + data live on GitHub)
Reality Labs' open release of the paired captures behind Codec Avatars, published at NeurIPS 2024 (Datasets & Benchmarks). Ava-256 pairs high-resolution dome scans of 256 subjects with headset-camera footage for universal avatar encoding/decoding; Goliath-4 captures 4 subjects across 8 modalities including relightable heads, hands, and full-body scans. CC-BY-NC 4.0.
Why it matters
Opens the data behind Codec Avatars to outside researchers: Ava-256 pairs 80-camera dome scans of 256 subjects with Quest Pro headset footage for universal face encoders and decoders, and Goliath-4 captures four subjects across eight modalities. Published at NeurIPS 2024 (Datasets and Benchmarks) under CC-BY-NC 4.0 with download scripts and training code.
Facts
- Ava-256: 256 subjects each captured twice — in a multi-dozen-view dome AND wearing a headset with infrared cameras — the paired data 'rarely available outside dedicated industrial labs.' Goliath ships official PyTorch implementations of RelightableHands,…
