Network

Physical-world robot data collection at operational quality

The capture network is the field side of every dataset we ship: sites, calibrated rigs, task protocols, and chain of custody. Nothing here is synthetic filler for your training mix.

Field workflow

How a session runs

  1. 01

    Site selection

    We choose capture sites for task diversity: kitchens, workshops, warehouses, and offices. Sites are scouted for lighting, clearance, and mobility constraints that mirror real robot deployments.

  2. 02

    Rig deployment

    Operators deploy standardised kits: head and wrist POV (RGB + depth), IMU logging, and optional controller telemetry. Rigs are calibrated before day one and rechecked between sessions.

  3. 03

    Capture protocols

    Structured task scripts (pick and place, handover, navigation under occlusion, bimanual work) keep coverage intentional. Deviations are logged. Scripts are versioned with each release.

  4. 04

    Sync & handoff

    Session bundles are encrypted and uploaded securely. Intake checks queue annotation. Operators receive a quality summary the next morning.

Quality & governance

Standards you can cite

Researchers and enterprises need data they can publish and ship. Field and data standards are built for that bar. See also Process and Security.

  • Informed consent before every session
  • Faces and identifiers handled per agreement before data leaves the capture site
  • Chain-of-custody from device to release
  • Scripts and calibration logs retained with each dataset version
  • Raw footage access limited to named ROBOTRAIN engineers

Partners

Site, hardware, and annotation partners

Property owners & operators

Structured on-site sessions with compensation and consent agreed upfront. Releases are anonymised per agreement before they leave our control.

Hardware manufacturers

Integrate your sensors into our rig standard. Approved partners can receive pre-release samples for benchmarking.

Annotation partners

We work with teams experienced in robotics labelling for spatial and temporal tasks.

Commission a capture program

Buyers: scope a custom dataset. Partners: tell us about sites, hardware, or annotation capacity.
