The MVTec 3D anomaly detection dataset (MVTec 3D-AD)

MVTec 3D anomaly detection dataset (MVTec 3D-AD) is a comprehensive 3D dataset for the task of unsupervised anomaly detection and localization. It contains over 4000 high-resolution scans acquired by an industrial 3D sensor. Each of the 10 different object categories comprises a set of defect-free training and validation samples and a test set of samples with various kinds of defects. Precise ground-truth annotations are provided for each anomalous test sample.

More information can be found in our corresponding paper titled "The MVTec 3D-AD Dataset for Unsupervised 3D Anomaly Detection and Localization". This work was awarded the Best Industrial Paper Award at the 17th International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications (VISAPP / VISIGRAPP).
