Create the directory in the current project folder
mkdir -p data/co3dClone the CO3D codebase outside of your current project folder:
git clone git@github.com:facebookresearch/co3d.git
cd co3d/Install the required Python packages:
pip install visdom tqdm requests h5pyThen install the CO3D package itself:
pip install -e .- Note: Make sure to install these packages in a separate environment
Use the CO3D download script with the --single_sequence_subset flag to fetch a compact subset suitable for the many-view, single-sequence task:
python ./co3d/download_dataset.py \
--download_folder DOWNLOAD_FOLDER \
--single_sequence_subsetExample (downloading into this repo’s data/co3d folder):
python ./co3d/download_dataset.py \
--download_folder ../Open-Rig3R/data/co3d/ \
--single_sequence_subsetThis subset requires ~8.9 GB, significantly smaller than the full dataset (~5.5 TB).
