A world of expertise

Every outpost holds
something worth learning.

Across industries, skilled work reveals the perception, dexterity, and judgment that physical AI needs to learn.

The physical routines that keep dairy and poultry operations running. Work unfolds around animals, equipment, and changing conditions.

Care & handle

Milking, animal handling, and feeding.

Collect & sort

Egg collection and sorting.

Maintain & inspect

Equipment operation, cleaning, inspections, and day-to-day physical work.

What the work reveals

Careful handling, repeated task sequences, equipment interaction, and working in dynamic environments.

Egocentric

Pharmaceutical & medical manufacturing

04 / 08

Structured manufacturing work with precise sequences and deliberate checks. Collection covers permitted production processes where recording is allowed.

Set up & operate

Equipment setup and operation.

Inspect & package

Inspection, packaging, and quality-control procedures.

Clean & change over

Cleaning, changeovers, and other structured manufacturing processes.

What the work reveals

Procedure following, careful object handling, ordered workflows, and quality-control observations.

Egocentric

Factories & manufacturing

05 / 08

Skilled factory work, seen from the person doing it. Each finished part carries a sequence of tool choices, adjustments, and checks.

Build & operate

Assembly, wiring, machining, welding, and machine operation.

Test & finish

Testing, inspection, quality control, and packaging.

Diagnose & restore

Troubleshooting, repair, disassembly, and reassembly.

What the work reveals

Tool use, part handling, multi-step assembly, and the checks that separate a completed action from a correct one.

Egocentric

Automotive & industrial repair

06 / 08
Illustrative first-person view of a mechanic servicing a disassembled industrial motor

Mechanics and technicians working through real physical problems. The valuable signal is in the diagnosis, the disassembly, and the decisions along the way.

Diagnose

Identify problems in vehicles, machinery, and industrial equipment.

Take apart & rebuild

Disassemble equipment, replace components, and rebuild machines.

Service

Carry out maintenance and repair using specialized tools.

What the work reveals

Long-horizon task planning, tool selection, component replacement, and recovery when a process does not go as expected.

Egocentric

Custom Egocentric

07 / 08

New skills call for new perspectives. We establish outposts around underrepresented tasks and environments, capturing human expertise beyond familiar benchmarks.

Define the work

Tasks, environments, objects, and variation.

Design the capture

Crews, rigs, camera perspective, and collection protocol.

Structure the data

Task annotations, quality checks, consistent structure, and provenance.

What the work reveals

Unfamiliar tools, new task sequences, and the adaptations that skilled people make in less-studied environments.

Robot demonstrations

Custom Teleoperation

08 / 08

Human-operated robot demonstrations for manipulation tasks. Operator intent is recorded through robot episodes and trajectories, connecting perception directly to action.

Demonstrate

Picking, handling, and manipulation tasks.

Capture

Teleoperated episodes and robot trajectories.

Vary

Robot setups, objects, and task conditions that broaden the demonstrations.

What the work reveals

Action-conditioned learning, manipulation policies, and demonstrations grounded in robot movement.

From an action to usable data

An action is only
part of the story.

A movement shows what happened. Its context reveals what changed, which tools mattered, and how the task unfolded. We preserve those connections for learning.

First-person perspective
From observation to learning signal1 / 3
01 / Capture

Start with the human perspective.

Hands, tools, objects, and surroundings tell a connected story. First-person recordings preserve how skilled people perceive a task and act on what they see.

  • Task-appropriate camera perspectives and rigs
  • Experienced crews in real working environments
  • Variation in tools, objects, and conditions
02 / Context

Keep what makes an action meaningful.

We organize continuous work into meaningful sequences and add task-relevant annotations. This links movements to objects, task stages, and observable outcomes.

  • Sequences of work and task segmentation
  • Hand, tool, and object annotations as appropriate
  • Quality review for clarity and consistency
03 / Learning

Turn experience into a learning signal.

Structured demonstrations connect what a model sees with what happens next. They provide examples for learning task progression, object interactions, and the checks that distinguish a correct action from a completed one.

  • Linked video, task context, and annotations
  • Site and crew provenance retained
  • Consistent structure for training and evaluation

Egocentric video reveals human skill; teleoperation adds the robot actions needed to learn control.

Outposts begin with people

Closer to the work.
Closer to the skill.

The most valuable knowledge often lives in the person doing the work. We build collections around that expertise.

Working sites

Tasks grounded in real operating environments, with the tools and variation that come with them.

Paid, consented crews

Experienced people, clear tasks, and recording permissions agreed before collection.

Purposeful capture

Rigs, perspectives, and protocols designed to preserve the fine movements, decisions, and outcomes that make skilled work useful for learning.
