The SPCup19 Egonoise Dataset

The first phase of the IEEE Signal Processing Cup 2019 included a bonus task: participants could send their own recordings of drone egonoise to obtain extra points. In robotics, egonoise refers to the noise self-produced by a robot at its acoustic sensors, e.g., by its actuators.

This task was a success, as 10 teams sent very valuable egonoise data. This allowed us to gather a unique database of drone-embedded recordings, which is made publically available here for research and education purpose, as agreed by participating teams.

Please add the following citation to any research paper referring to these data:
