Human Activity Recognition (HAR) involves the automatic identification of user activities and has gained significant research interest due to its broad applicability. Most HAR systems rely on supervised learning, which necessitates large, diverse, and well-annotated datasets. However, existing datasets predominantly focus on basic activities such as walking, standing, and stair navigation, limiting their utility in specialized contexts like sports performance analysis. To address this gap, we present BasketHAR, a novel multimodal HAR dataset tailored for basketball training, encompassing a diverse set of professional-level actions. BasketHAR includes comprehensive motion data from inertial measurement units (accelerometers and gyroscopes), angular velocity, magnetic field, heart rate, skin temperature, and synchronized video recordings. We also provide a baseline multimodal alignment method to benchmark performance. Experimental results underscore the dataset's complexity and suitability for advanced HAR tasks. Furthermore, we highlight its potential applications in the analysis of basketball training sessions and in the generation of specialized performance reports, representing a valuable resource for future research in HAR and sports analytics.
