Egocentric samples

Real-world tasks, seen from the first person.

Real work in factories, workshops, building sites and homes — recorded from the viewpoint of the person doing it.

How it is captured

Four ways we record the real world.

The rig is chosen per task. Every stream is calibrated and aligned to one timeline before it reaches you.

  1. Egocentric / first-person

    What the person sees while doing the task — hands, objects and the order of actions, from the robot’s own point of view.

    • Head- or chest-level camera
    • Action camera, smart glasses, XR headset or research glasses
    • Resolution and frame rate agreed per task

    Standard deliverable

  2. Stereo video

    Two calibrated views of the same scene, so depth and 3D position can be recovered for spatial understanding and manipulation.

    • Calibrated stereo pair
    • Per-rig calibration results
    • Depth or 3D hand pose where the rig supports it

    Standard deliverable (RGB or stereo)

  3. Mono-RGB video

    Standard colour video of everyday activities — the base input for detection, tracking and activity recognition models.

    • Calibrated RGB
    • First-person, or paired fixed third-person views
    • Temporal segmentation to sub-action

    Standard deliverable; paired views optional

  4. Wearable & sensor data

    Motion signals that tell a model how the body and head moved between frames, aligned to the video timeline.

    • IMU clock-aligned to video frames
    • Synchronisation check per rig
    • Optional gaze, depth or narration tracks

    Standard deliverable; extras depend on the rig

Supported environments

Collected where the work actually happens.

Real homes, shops, kitchens, warehouses and farms — with site permissions and consent arranged before recording.

  • Households & residential

    Everyday manipulation in real homes.

    • Cooking and prep
    • Opening a drawer
    • Folding laundry
