PhysDrive is a 48-driver multimodal remote physiological measurement dataset for in-vehicle monitoring with synchronized RGB, NIR, and mmWave plus ECG/BVP/RESP/HR/RR/SpO2 (NeurIPS 2025; arXiv:2507.19172). Preprocessed Kaggle slice needs no DSA; full raw RGB/NIR requires academic data-share agreement and commercial use is banned.

Original description
Here is [NIPS2025] PhysDrive: A Multimodal Remote Physiological Measurement Dataset for In-vehicle Driver Monitoring, collected by The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou). The PhysDrive, comprises about 24 hours(1500K frames) of recordings from RGB camera, NIR camera, and an mmWave radar of 48 subjects. The dataset was designed to ontactless in-vehicle physiological sensing with dedicated consideration on various modality settings and driving factors, including Three vehicle types, four illumination conditions, three road conditions, and driver motions. PhysDrive is comprehensive with six synchronized ground truths (ECG, BVP, Respiration, HR, RR, and SpO2) and can be used in conjunction with the rPPG-toolbox.
