EVERYDAY
THINGS.
Useful visual data does not always look extraordinary.
A street, a shop, a plate, a package, a tool, a vehicle or an object on a desk can all provide useful information about the world around us.
Dabbies works with contributors to capture authentic visual examples that reflect real environments and everyday life.
THE WORLD
AS IT IS.
Image tasks can focus on different types of real-world visual information depending on the requirements of a dataset.
EVERYDAY OBJECTS
Photographs of ordinary objects and items found in homes, workplaces, streets and other everyday environments.
PLACES & ENVIRONMENTS
Visual examples of real environments, surroundings and locations where people actually live and work.
PRODUCTS & PACKAGING
Images of physical products, containers, labels and packaging encountered in everyday situations.
REAL-WORLD SCENES
Carefully collected scenes that represent how objects and environments appear in real conditions.
A PHOTO
CAN HOLD
A LOT.
Images show technology what words sometimes cannot explain.
Visual datasets can help systems understand objects, environments, layouts, colours, shapes and relationships between things.
But a useful dataset needs more than a large number of photographs. It needs variety, consistency and context.
That is where structured human collection becomes important.
POINT.
FRAME.
CAPTURE.
Image collection is designed around clear instructions so contributors know what a task requires before submitting.
FIND THE TASK
Browse available image collection tasks and review the requirements.
UNDERSTAND THE FRAME
Read what needs to be photographed, including any specific requirements.
CAPTURE
Use your phone or suitable camera to take an original photograph.
SUBMIT
Upload the required image through Dabbies and complete the task submission.
A GOOD
FRAME.
Quality starts before the upload button is pressed.
CLEAR
The requested subject should be visible and reasonably clear.
ORIGINAL
Submit photographs you captured yourself according to the task instructions.
RELEVANT
The image should match what the task actually asks contributors to collect.
UNALTERED
Do not manipulate or generate an image unless the specific task explicitly allows it.
Every image gives a dataset another view of the physical world.
CAPTURE
WITH
CARE.
Real-world photography requires awareness.
Contributors should follow every task's instructions and avoid submitting material that they are not permitted to collect.
When a task involves people, private spaces, sensitive information or restricted locations, the applicable task requirements must be followed carefully.
Dabbies is built around structured collection, review and responsible handling of submitted data.
