The dataset contains over 14 hours of synchronized surveillance video from 8 cameras at 1080p and 60FPS with over 2 million frames of 2,000 students walking to and from classes.

 <p>In this investigation into the Duke MTMC dataset we tracked down over 100 publicly available research papers that explicitly acknowledged using Duke MTMC. Our analysis shows that the dataset has spread far beyond its origins and intentions in academic research projects at Duke University. Since its publication in 2016, more than twice as many research citations originated in China as in the United States. Among these citations were papers with explicit and direct links to the Chinese military and several of the companies known to provide Chinese authorities with the oppressive surveillance technology used to monitor millions of Uighur Muslims.</p>

As the surveillance crisis in China grew, so did the number of citations with links to organizations complicit in the crisis. In 2018 alone there were over 70 research projects happening in China that publicly acknowledged benefiting from the Duke MTMC dataset. Amongst these were projects from SenseNets, SenseTime, CloudWalk, Megvii, Beihang University, and the PLA's National University of Defense Technology.</p>
