Ego-OSCAR: Egocentric Open Source Stereo CAptuRe System
Overview
Ego-OSCAR is an open-hardware head-mounted capture platform offering low-cost, reproducible egocentric vision. It combines a global-shutter stereo camera, 6-axis IMU, Linux SBC, and real-time microcontroller. The system includes CAD, firmware, and a 550-hour stereo video dataset with model-predicted annotations. Total cost under USD 200 using commodity parts and 3D prints. Latest: Ego-OSCAR is presented as a low-cost, reproducible solution for egocentric vision, combining a global-shutter stereo camera with a 6-axis IMU, Linux SBC, and real-time microcontroller for synchronization. The system includes CAD, firmware, and a dataset of 550 hours of stereo video from 25 contributors, with model-predicted annotations rather than raw video.
