UAV3D: A Large-scale 3D Perception Benchmark for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), equipped with cameras, are employed in numerous applications, including aerial photography, surveillance, and agriculture. In these applications, robust object detection and tracking are essential for the effective deployment of UAVs. However, existing benchmarks for UAV applications are mainly designed for traditional 2D perception tasks, restricting thedevelopment of real-world applications that require a 3D understanding of the environment. Furthermore, despite recent advancements in single-UAV perception, limited views of a single UAV platform significantly constrain its perception capabilities over long distances or in occluded areas. To address these challenges, we introduce UAV3D - a benchmark designed to advance research in both 3D andcollaborative 3D perception tasks with UAVs. UAV3D comprises 1,000 scenes, each of which has 20 frames with fully annotated 3D bounding boxes on vehicles. We provide the benchmark for four 3D perception tasks: single-UAV 3D object detection, single-UAV object tracking, collaborative-UAV 3D object detection, and collaborative-UAV object tracking.

The home of the US Air Force's nuclear bomber fleet was repeatedly invaded by a swarm of mysterious drones that could not be stopped by the military's jamming technology. Officials at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana confirmed to the Daily Mail that the base detected'multiple unauthorized drones' entering restricted airspace between March 9 and March 15. The first incident involving a single'unmanned aerial system' triggered a shelter-in-place order and terror alert amid reports from the FBI of potential drone attacks on US soil. However, an internal military briefing document has reportedly revealed that later incidents involved swarms of 12 to 15 drones entering the base's no-fly zone .
