UNIC Dataset Part 2

Introduction

This repository provides the dataset used in UNIC: Learning Unified Multimodal Extrinsic Contact Estimation.
The dataset contains multimodal sensory data collected for training and evaluating the UNIC framework. It is intended to support research on extrinsic contact estimation and contact-rich robotic manipulation.
Details of the model architecture, training procedure, and evaluation protocols are provided in the released UNIC code repository. Please refer to the repository for all training and implementation details.

At a Glance
