Agreed labels, documented checks and usable files.
Scope, budget and acceptance criteria agreed before production.
TWO WAYS TO START
Build the data. Make it useful.
For robotics and embodied AI teams with a specific data requirement.
01 / HUMAN DEMONSTRATIONS
Record the work you need to study.
Commission people to perform and record a defined physical task. Agree the environment, camera view, task variations and recording requirements around your intended use.
A task script and capture specification
A small sample to check the setup
Recordings and metadata in the agreed format
Equipment, locations, participant requirements and usage rights are scoped for each pilot.
02 / ANNOTATION & REVIEW
Turn existing material into clear records.
Bring your recordings or other project data. We scope the annotation and review work around the labels, evidence and export format your team needs.
Task descriptions and action segments
Outcomes and exceptions using your rubric
Reviewed labels with uncertainty and correction notes
Label definitions and review coverage are agreed on a sample before a larger batch.
AN EXAMPLE PILOT BRIEF
One action. Enough detail to judge it.
“Move a cup from a marked start position onto a tray.” A simple task still needs a shared definition of the recording and its labels.
Illustrative scope only. This is a proposed brief, not footage from a client project.
Task & setting
One person, a tabletop, a cup and a tray. Define the starting position and what counts as a completed placement.
Capture specification
Agree the camera view, resolution and frame rate. Keep the hand, object and target visible through the action. Confirm permitted variations and exclude unrelated people or private material.
Annotation
Define the boundaries for reach, grasp, move and release. Record the outcome and flag anything the recording does not make clear.
Delivery
Recordings with stable clip IDs, a metadata manifest, an annotation file and review notes. Agree timestamp units, label definitions and file structure in advance.
Acceptance
Check a sample together. Agree visibility requirements, permitted timing tolerance, review coverage and how uncertain or rejected items are handled before production.
FROM BRIEF TO PILOT
Agree the standard. Then build the batch.
The pilot should help you decide whether to expand, revise the specification or stop.
01
Scope
Share the task, intended use and data you already have. Agree deliverables, rights, access, retention, budget and timing.
02
Calibrate
Review a small sample together. Resolve unclear instructions and settle the acceptance criteria.
03
Deliver
Receive the agreed files with review notes and known limitations. Assess their fit in your own workflow before scaling.
Yes. Scope new human recordings and annotation in one pilot, or start with a review of material you already have. The brief defines what is included in each stage.
Does human video include robot action data?+
Human demonstration video shows an action being performed. It does not automatically include robot commands, joint states or sensor measurements. Your research team should confirm how it will use the recordings. Robot teleoperation and instrumented robot collection require a separate capability assessment.
What formats and volumes can you support?+
We confirm those against your requirements before committing. Start with the sample structure your pipeline expects, the initial batch size and the decision the pilot should support.
How are rights and sensitive material handled?+
The project agreement specifies source permissions, participant permissions where needed, permitted uses, storage, access and retention. Share a high-level description through the enquiry form; agree a suitable transfer route before sharing project files or sensitive data.
START WITH YOUR TASK
What does your robotics team need?
Tell us the task, whether you need new recordings or annotation, and what a useful pilot would deliver.
