Coventry-2018 is a human activity recognition dataset captured by three Panasonic® Grid-EYE (AMG8833) infrared sensors in March 2018. The Grid-EYE sensors represent a 60 field of view scene by an 8 × 8 array named frame. The data streams are synchronized to 10 frames per second and saved as *.csv recordings using the LabVIEW® software. Two layouts are considered in this dataset with different geometry sizes: 1) small layout; and 2) large layout.
