SPICE-HL3: Single-Photon, Inertial, and Stereo Camera Data for Lunar Landscape Simulation

SPICE-HL3 presents sensor data recorded at the University of Luxembourg's LunaLab, an indoor facility designed to replicate the optical characteristics of multiple lunar latitudes. The dataset was created by UMASpaceRobotics and last updated on February 15, 2026. It is intended for engineers working on lunar exploration technologies.

Use Cases

• Develop sensor fusion algorithms based on the combined single-photon, inertial, and stereo camera data.
• Test robotic navigation systems in simulated high-latitude lunar lighting conditions.
• Train computer vision models for terrain analysis using stereo imagery from a controlled lunar analog environment.
• Benchmark perception hardware and software intended for space exploration missions.

Strengths

• Data is recorded in a specialized indoor test facility (LunaLab) designed to replicate lunar optical characteristics.
• Dataset combines multiple sensor modalities (single-photon, inertial, stereo camera) for a holistic view.
• Last updated on 2026-02-15, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count, file formats, and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data is from a simulated indoor environment, not actual lunar surface conditions.
