This document describes the collection and organization of a dataset that consists of raw videos and extracted sub-images from video frames of a promising additive manufacturing technique called Two-Photon Lithography (TPL). Four unprocessed videos were collected, with each video capturing the printing process of different combinations of 3D parts on different photoresists at varying light dosages. These videos were further trimmed to obtain short clips that are organized by experimental parameters. Additionally, this dataset also contains a python script to reproduce an organized directory of cropped video frames extracted from the trimmed videos. These cropped frames focus on a region of interest around the parts being printed. We envision that the raw videos and cropped frames provided in this dataset will be used to train various computer vision and machine learning algorithms for applications such as object segmentation and localization applications. The cropped video frames were manually labelled by an expert to determine the quality of the printed part and for printing parameter optimization as presented in "Automated Detection of Part Quality during Two-Photon Lithography via Deep Learning" [1].
