This repository provides the virtual KITTI NextGen dataset and provides sublementary material for the use of it. The dataset contains camera images and annotations of five reconstructed scenes from the KITTI Vision Benchmark suite (https://cvlibs.net/datasets/kitti), that were virtually recreated and rendered using Unreal Engine 5. It features additional frames with altered time of day and weather effects.
