Midv806 2021 May 2026

MIDV806 2021 (Mobile Identity Document Video dataset 806) is an extensive dataset designed primarily for the development and evaluation of document analysis and recognition systems. Released in 2021 by a consortium of Russian researchers (primarily from the SmartEngines lab and ITMO University), this dataset is the successor to the original MIDV500 dataset.

The "806" in the name refers to the number of unique document identity types or video clips included, making it significantly larger and more complex than its predecessors. Unlike static image datasets, MIDV806 focuses on video streams, simulating real-world scenarios where a user holds a mobile phone over a passport, ID card, or driver’s license. midv806 2021
