# ColoRadar Sample

A sample of the ColoRadar 3D millimetre-wave radar dataset, as native `.mcap`
episodes.

A handheld rig carries a TI cascaded imaging radar and a TI single-chip radar
beside an Ouster OS1-64 LiDAR and a Microstrain inertial unit, through
hallways, a lab, a motion-capture space, outdoor built environments, the narrow
and the large passages of an underground mine, and a fast ride along paths and
roads. Each episode carries both radars’ point clouds, a top-down render of
each cascaded radar heatmap, the LiDAR scans, the inertial unit and the
release’s LiDAR-inertial ground truth.

7 sequences, one from each of the seven places the release records, 13 minutes
46 seconds of recording, 8,263 LiDAR scans holding 382.6 million points, 4,145
cascaded radar frames and 8,340 single-chip radar scans.

```python
import fiftyone as fo
import fiftyone.zoo as foz

dataset = foz.load_zoo_dataset("coloradar-sample")

# The sequences that covered the most ground
view = dataset.sort_by("ground_truth_path_m", reverse=True)

session = fo.launch_app(dataset, view=view)
```

```shell
fiftyone zoo datasets load coloradar-sample

fiftyone app launch coloradar-sample
