Why 100 High-Quality Frames Beat 23,000 Low-Quality Ones

A Computer Vision Reality Check for Automotive Engineers

MYTH

More data always means better ML performance. Teams chase 100k+ datasets while burning budgets and timelines.

REALITY

100 strategically-collected frames outperformed 23,000 standard KITTI frames by 30%

THIS MEANS

99% reduction in data needs, 5x faster development, and predictable ROI for your computer vision projects

The proof

KITTI Dataset Transformation

The “Before” shows a model trained on standard kitty LIDAR data (23k frames). It struggles with long-range perception and has lower resolution. The “After” adds just 100 high-quality frames with precise ground truth, enabling the model to “see to infinity” with much higher detail and accuracy. Small, targeted improvements in data quality can unlock capabilities that were previously impossible.
