HANGZHOU, China, June 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Coohom Cloud, a leading provider of data services and solutions for the AI industry, proudly unveiled its latest advancements in 2D and 3D interior dataset products at the Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 2024. This preeminent event, held from June 17-21 in Seattle, brought together top researchers, scientists, and industry leaders to explore breakthroughs in computer vision, artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, and much more.
Embodied intelligence emerged as a focal point at CVPR this year, representing an advanced field that merges computer vision, machine learning, and robotics. The demand for large-scale and high-quality datasets has become increasingly evident, whether for training humanoid robots or constructing robust AI models.
Coohom Cloud was established by Koolab Innovation Laboratory of MANYCORE TECH INC. in 2017, after realizing that many industries were on the verge of significant investments in high-quality data. MANYCORE TECH INC. is a leading global cloud based interior design software platform, Coohom Cloud leverages its parent company MANYCORE TECH INC.'s extensive indoor data resources, combined with high-performance rendering engines and advanced data processing technologies, to deliver realistic and physically accurate 2D and 3D interior datasets and services to the AI industry.
In 2018, MANYCORE TECH INC. collaborated with Imperial College London and the University of Southern California to introduce the InteriorNet, which was then the largest publicly available indoor scene dataset. Building upon this, the MANYCORE TECH INC.'s platform now generate over 400,000 3D designs daily and houses approximately 360 million 3D models, encompassing furniture, appliances, household items, and more. This forms a robust data foundation provided by Coohom Cloud for research in indoor environment understanding, 3D reconstruction, robotics simulation and beyond.
Regarding 2D image rendering technology, Coohom Cloud employs a proprietary rendering engine to capture image data in diverse indoor settings through adjusting camera parameters, path trajectories, lighting conditions, etc., resulting in 2D datasets in formats such as RGB, depth, semantic, normal, point cloud, and others. This capability allows Coohom Cloud to produce 300,000 sets of 2D datasets daily, serving as ample training materials for AI agents' navigation, visual perception, and environmental understanding capabilities.
To provide cost-effective data service solutions, Coohom Cloud utilizes its self-developed data processing engine designed for efficient data transformation, converting the accumulated database into formats suitable for AI training. This data engine can offer more comprehensive support on the physical, diversity, and data labeling fronts.
Physical Enhancement: Embodied intelligence's real-world interactive capabilities are a key indicator of its level of intelligence. Coohom Cloud integrates cutting-edge simulation platforms like NVIDIA Isaac Sim to create 3D environments with realistic physical properties, allowing robots to undergo extensive interaction testing within a virtual realm. This significantly reduces training costs, enhances training safety, and improves repeatability.
Environment Augmentation: Coohom Cloud's environment enhancement tool enriches the complexity of virtual environments through model element diversification, material variations, as well as lighting adjustments, etc. to simulate the diversity and complexity of the real world, enhancing the adaptability and generalization ability of robots.
Segmentation & Annotation: Coohom Cloud utilizes advanced synthetic data generation techniques to customize segmentation and annotation data, supporting various labels such as semantics, materials, spatial states. This approach significantly enhances data processing efficiency and accuracy.
Moreover, Coohom Cloud remains committed to exploring additional possibilities and value for computer vision and the entire AI field through technological innovation and industry partnerships.

Driving AI Forward: Coohom Cloud's Groundbreaking 2D and 3D Interior Data Solutions Revealed at CVPR 2024
NTUC Club continues to make the sport accessible and affordable for all through partnerships and its estate-less golf club, My Golf Kaki, amid plans for a new, integrated golf development.
SINGAPORE, June 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- This Sunday on June 30, Marina Bay Golf Course (MBGC) – Singapore's first and only 18-hole public golf course owned and managed by NTUC Club – will shutter as its land lease expires. Since its inception in 2006, MBGC has had an illustrious 18-year history, welcoming members of the public to experience its world-class facilities. It made its mark by earning numerous accolades including Best Public Golf Course in Asia Pacific and ranking among the Best Top 3 Best Golf Course in Singapore.
Fun fact: In the past 18 years, the well-loved MBGC has seen more than 1.3 million people on the greens and dispensed over 419 million driving range golf balls.
Despite the closure of MGBC, NTUC Club will continue to make the sport accessible and affordable through its estate-less golf club My Golf Kaki (MGK). This has been done by providing more slots to MGK members during weekdays as well as increasing the number of days night-golf is available at the Orchid Country Club (OCC). Together with the recent expansion of MGK's portfolio of local and overseas courses including in Indonesia and Malaysia, MGK members can not only enjoy an easier planning and booking process, but have a wider variety of golf courses to choose from as well.
Mr Lim Eng Lee, NTUC Club's Chief Executive Officer, said: "Despite the closure of MBGC, we hope to continue to make golf an affordable and accessible sport. In anticipation of MBGC's closure, we have stepped up efforts since last year to promote the affordable MGK membership to golfers. We are encouraged by the response with the community growing from 7,000, to over 9,000 members in the last 12 months. I am pleased that NTUC Club has been working closely with the SGA in our shared vision that golf can be an inclusive sport to be enjoyed by all."
Mr Tan Chong Huat, President of the Singapore Golf Association (SGA), remarked: "The closure of the hugely popular Marina Bay Golf Course will significantly impact Singapore's golfing community without access to a private golf club. We acknowledge the impact of land scarcity on the entry barrier and accessibility to playing golf in Singapore. As the national custodian of the sport, SGA will continue to play its leadership role in developing a robust golf ecosystem that strives to promote and develop the game of golf for all Singaporeans from all walks of life."
He added that SGA will uphold its commitment to making golf an inclusive sport that contributes to the physical and mental well-being of Singaporeans. It remains dedicated to this mission and looks forward to working with stakeholders, including NTUC Club, to achieve pragmatic and beneficial outcomes aligned with urban growth needs and the development of golf in Singapore.
Similarly, NTUC Club is deeply committed to grow Singapore's golfing community, and has been in discussion with the authorities for potential sites that can be developed under the Labour Movement (LM). NTUC Club plans for future LM golf courses to be inclusive with a new, integrated golf concept – one that is enhanced by additional recreational spaces for family-friendly activities such as cycling tracks, nature trails, and common spaces for picnics and performances. Future LM golf courses will welcome not just golfers, but the public and people from all walks of life.
