DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
---------------------


1. File List
   A. Filename: Human_data.zip       
      Short description: This zip file includes all recorded human data. Inside the zipped folder are ten directories, labeled "1" through "10" which corresponds with the data for an individual participant. Inside each folder are five series of files: 
		D_data =  Depth data from Kinect
		Gaze_data = Gaze data from human subjects
		Joystick_data = Joystick data from human subjects
		Position_data = Robot position data from human subjects
		RGB_data = RGB image data from Kinect
	And each series of data is split in 20 DAT files (i.e., "D_data1.dat" through "D_data20.dat”) representing different trials (1st~20th trial).      
       
   B. Filename: Map_data.zip      
      Short description: This zip file includes a map data. Note this file is dependant on using Search_HMI program.        
        
   C. Filename: Search_HMI.zip       
      Short description: Search human machine interface (HMI) code 
	Long description: This zip file includes a human machine interface to read and display Human_data and Map_data. This code is implemented by Microsoft visual studio C++ 2010.

   D. Filename: HMI_picture.jpg 
      Short description: A screen shot of the HMI.

   E. Filename: Readme.txt     
      Short description: It is the file you are reading.

   F. Filename: Install.txt       
      Short description: This file describes how to install the software and arrange data set position.


2. Relationship between files:        
Human_data.zip and Map_data.zip are files of this dataset.
Search_HMI.zip is the source code to read and display the dataset.
Readme.txt and install.txt explain the files and how to install them.


3. Additional related data collected that was not included in the current data package:
NA



4. Are there multiple versions of the dataset? no

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------


1. Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: 

This search system is to collect human search data The system consists of a joystick, a monitor, a Tobii eye tracking controller, a P3DX robot equipped with a Kinect sensor, and two laptops. 

All sensor data is collected at 4 Hz. The experimental environment is a hallway delineated by walls and various pieces of furniture (Akerman hall). The dimension of experimental space is 10m X10m (m=meters).

2. Methods for processing the data:
The raw data is in Human_data.zip.

3. Instrument- or software-specific information needed to interpret the data:
Search_HMI.zip includes everything the users need to read the data.
Since the solution project is implemented in Miscrosoft Visual Studio C++,
the users should run it on Windows environments (e.g., above Windows 7).

4. Standards and calibration information, if appropriate:
NA

5. Environmental/experimental conditions:
See the reference paper for details.

6. Describe any quality-assurance procedures performed on the data:
See the reference paper for details

7. People involved with sample collection, processing, analysis and/or submission:
