The dataset includes over 14 hours of 1080p video from 8 cameras positioned around Duke's campus during February and March 2014. Over 2,700 unique people are included in the dataset, which has become of the most widely used person re-identification image datasets.

- expand story
- add google street view images of each camera location?
- add actual head detections to header image with faces blurred
- add 4 diverse example images with faces blurred
- add map location of the brainwash cafe
