Precise BPO Solution provides automotive data annotation services for ADAS and autonomous driving teams, covering LiDAR point clouds, 3D cuboids, semantic segmentation and video labeling. We've run data operations since 2008 and have labeled data for AI teams since 2017. Our 540+ in-house team in Pune works under ISO 27001-aligned security controls, and every annotator signs an NDA.
Sensor data labeling for ADAS and autonomous driving, from an in-house team that has run large-scale data operations since 2008.
We label camera, LiDAR and radar data for ADAS and autonomous vehicle (AV) perception teams, as part of our wider data labeling services. We started in 2008 with data entry and moved into data labeling in 2017. Since then we have delivered 810M+ annotations, 90M+ of them automotive, across dashcam video, LiDAR point clouds, radar returns and aerial imagery. Our 540+ in-house team works under ISO 27001-aligned and GDPR-aligned workflows.
The output is labeled datasets perception teams can train on: 3D object labels, semantic maps and sensor-fusion ground truth, with human review at each stage. Because the team is in India, our rates run well below US and UK vendors, and QA stays the same. We handle everything from simple 2D labeling to full sensor-fusion projects.
We cover the main automotive annotation types: 3D cuboids and bounding boxes, LiDAR point cloud segmentation, semantic and instance segmentation, lane and polyline annotation, radar object detection and frame-by-frame video tracking. Guidelines, IoU benchmarks and multi-pass QA mean every dataset is checked against your quality bar before it ships, which matters for safety-critical ADAS work.
Automotive data annotation is the process of labeling raw sensor data (camera images, LiDAR point clouds, radar feeds and video frames) so that autonomous driving AI and ADAS systems can learn to understand their surroundings. Each labeled object tells the model what it is, where it is, and how it relates to other elements in the scene.
Perception models cannot reliably detect vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, road signs or lane markings without accurately labeled ground truth. In ADAS and autonomous driving work, label accuracy is a safety issue, not only a performance one.
Automotive annotation spans 2D bounding boxes, 3D cuboids, polylines, polygons, semantic segmentation masks, instance segmentation, panoptic segmentation, and LiDAR point cloud labeling, each suited to specific sensor types and model architectures. Our data labeling explainer shows how these techniques fit together.
We label vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, road signs, lane markings and infrastructure, from 3D cuboids to bird's-eye-view and aerial imagery, using the same class definitions on every frame. For in-cabin driver monitoring and occupancy AI, we also do landmark (keypoint) labeling.
We also process violation records from ANPR and toll programs through our traffic citation data entry service.
The right annotation type depends on your sensor and your model. This table covers the usual choices for ADAS and autonomous driving data.
| Criteria | 2D Bounding Box | 3D Cuboid / LiDAR | Semantic Segmentation | Polyline |

No platform fees, no lock-in. Choose the model that fits your data volume, timeline and budget. For a full breakdown, see our data labeling pricing guide.
Pay per labeled still image. Ideal for defined datasets, 2D bounding box batches, or one-off ADAS model training sets at a predictable per-unit cost.
Priced per video frame, which suits autonomous driving sequences, drive-log replays and temporal tracking, where frame count is the natural unit of work.
Hourly model for high-complexity annotation such as 3D point clouds, multi-sensor fusion and occlusion-heavy scenes, where per-frame pricing doesn't reflect actual effort.
A dedicated annotation team at fixed monthly capacity. Best for AV programs and ADAS teams with continuous fleet data ingestion, active learning loops, or production-stage perception stacks.
"We were braced for a few rounds of corrections on our 3D cuboids. The first LiDAR batch already cleared our IoU thresholds, and the team picked up our perception requirements without much hand-holding."
"Going from 20,000 to 120,000 frames a month in under eight weeks is the part that surprised me. Quality held steady through the ramp, and it's obvious the annotators know ADAS work well."
"Segmentation on our urban scenes came back clean. Their security setup also made the data governance conversation with our European colleagues much easier."
Answers on data types, annotation techniques, LiDAR, security, pricing and platforms.
We annotate images, video, LiDAR point clouds, radar data and sensor-fusion datasets. Common labeled classes include vehicles, pedestrians, traffic signs, lanes, road edges and other objects in the driving environment. The resulting ground truth supports perception and navigation work from Level 2 ADAS through Level 4 autonomy. We also support bird's-eye-view data, and our wider AI data labeling services cover other industries.
Automotive datasets commonly use bounding boxes, polygons, polylines, semantic, instance and panoptic segmentation, 3D cuboids and LiDAR point cloud annotation. Each suits a different job: object detection, lane tracking, depth estimation or scene understanding. Which one you need depends on your sensors and your model, and the comparison table above covers the usual choices.
We label LiDAR point clouds with 3D cuboids and semantic segmentation, giving perception models object distance, volume and spatial context. Our annotators are trained specifically for 3D sensor data and work to tight IoU thresholds. Outputs are delivered in KITTI, JSON, PCD or custom formats that match your perception stack.
Sensor fusion annotation aligns labels across camera, LiDAR and radar so perception models receive spatially consistent data. Our annotators cross-reference the sensor feeds and give each object the same label and ID in every input. This matters for ADAS, where no single sensor is enough for safe decision-making.
Annotated datasets are delivered in COCO, KITTI, JSON, XML, YOLO, Pascal VOC, CSV, OpenLABEL or client-specified schemas, so they load directly into most ML pipelines, simulation tools and evaluation frameworks.
We scale by adding trained annotators to your project and keeping the same guidelines and QA across every batch. We support continuous data uploads, phased delivery and evolving dataset requirements.
Yes. Our workflows are ISO 27001-aligned and GDPR-aligned. All annotators sign NDAs before project access, roles are permission-scoped to prevent data exposure, and automated security monitoring runs across all project environments. If your security team needs more detail, we can walk through our controls and complete your vendor questionnaire before the pilot starts.
Pricing depends on data type, annotation complexity, volume and turnaround. We price per image, per frame, per hour or as a monthly retainer, and because our team is based in India, rates are typically well below US and UK providers. Send us your dataset details and we will quote against your volume and annotation requirements.
Yes. Our annotators work inside your internal tooling or any third-party platform, including Scale AI, Labelbox, CVAT, Roboflow, SuperAnnotate and V7. We adapt to your workflow rather than asking you to switch platforms.
