2. Recording Synthetic Data¶
2.1. Learning Objectives¶
This tutorial introduces the Synthetic Data recorder for Isaac-Sim. After this tutorial, you will know how to generate large quantities of synthetic sensor data for training a deep learning model.
15-20 Minute Tutorial
2.2. Getting Started¶
To begin, first load the following stage
Isaac/Samples/Synthetic_Data/Stage/warehouse_with_sensors.usd
This stage comes preloaded with semantic annotations, as well as a random camera that with jump to different views for data generation.
2.2.1. Synthetic Data Recorder Usage Example¶
Press Shift+C
and Shift+L
to hide all camera and light widgets respectively so that they don’t show up in recorded synthetic data.
Alternatively, go to Show/Hide
UI icon and hide Cameras
and Lights
from Show By Type
option.
Switch to the camera named RandomCamera
and press Play
in the editor. This camera randomly moves around the warehouse with its viewport pointing to the cart.
Update the settings as specified below and press Start Recording
.
The synthetic data recorded will be available in the local folder specified within the Output Directory
option of Recorder Settings
.
2.3. Summary¶
This tutorial covered the following topics:
Setting the target directory for the exported data from the recorder
Running the semantic data recorder
