Use an academic email address; all registrations have to be manually approved.


Please use an academic email address to register.

Academic email addresses contain ".ac" or ".edu".

The following are NOT academic email addresses:

Registrations from non-academic email addresses - like those listed above - will be classified as commercial enquiries and rejected.

All registrations have to be manually approved.

Please do not email the team to say:

I've registered but I can't login

If you registered with an academic email address and you haven't received a response within three working days, please contact the RobotCar Dataset Team via robotcardataset@robots.ox.ac.uk.
