arXiv:2510.25901v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The vulnerability of cyclists, exacerbated by the rising popularity of faster e-bikes, motivates adapting automotive perception technologies for bicycle safety. We use our multi-sensor SenseBike research platform to study 3D LiDAR semantic segmentation for bicycles. We introduce the novel BikeScenes-lidarseg Dataset, comprising 3021 consecutive LiDAR scans around the university campus of the TU Delft, semantically annotated for 29 dynamic and static classes. As an initial baseline study, we evaluate how a SemanticKITTI pre-trained FRNet model transfers to this bicycle-mounted solid-state LiDAR setting. Fine-tuning on BikeScenes increases mean Intersection-over-Union (mIoU) from 13.8% to 63.6% on our held-out subsequences. These results show the practical value of in-domain data for this platform, while also highlighting the need for larger bicycle datasets. We contribute BikeScenes as a resource for advancing research in cyclist-centric perception.
