| This dataset was created using [LeRobot](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot). |
|
|
| ## Dataset Description |
|
|
| This dataset contains the final batch of teleoperated demonstrations collected during a two-day hackathon using the LeRobot library and SO-101 robot arms in a leader–follower configuration. |
| Each episode shows the follower arm picking two colored cubes (one after the other) and placing each into the matching colored cross within a 2×2 grid. Two RGB cameras were used: |
|
|
| Top camera: mounted above the workspace for a clear 2D view of the arm, cubes, and grid. |
|
|
| Front/low camera: slightly above the ground, facing the arm and grid to provide better z-axis cues and arm self-perception. |
|
|
| Despite cardboard backgrounding, the room’s illumination varied over time and is deliberately preserved in the data, as it proved to be a limiting factor and may be valuable for robustness research. |
|
|
| This dataset is intended for vision-based imitation learning (e.g., behavior cloning, goal-conditioned policies), multi-view fusion, and perception-control studies on tabletop manipulation. |
|
|
| ### Use Cases |
|
|
| - **Imitation Learning**: Behavior cloning from teleop demonstrations. |
|
|
| - **Multiview Perception**: Fusing top + front perspectives for depth inference without explicit depth sensors. |
|
|
| - **Robustness to Lighting**: Evaluating policy sensitivity to illumination drift. |
|
|
| - **State–Action Alignment**: Leveraging synchronized proprioception and images. |
|
|
|
|
| ## Data Collection |
|
|
| ### Teleoperation Setup |
|
|
| - **Leader–Follower**: Human teleoperates a leader arm; follower SO-101 replicates motion to generate demonstrations. |
|
|
| - **Workspace**: Tabletop with a 2×2 grid. Each cell contains a colored cross; two colored cubes must be placed on matching crosses. |
|
|
| - **Cameras**: |
|
|
| - **Top**: overhead, full scene. |
|
|
| - **Front**: low angle, emphasizes depth and arm self-pose. |
|
|
| - **Background control**: Cardboard panels; lighting varies during the day and is preserved in data. |
|
|
| ### Episode Protocol |
|
|
| 1- Move to pre-grasp; localize target cube(s) visually. |
|
|
| 2- Grasp first cube; transport; place on correct colored cross. |
|
|
| 3- Repeat for second cube. |
|
|
| 4- Return to neutral. |
|
|
|
|
| ## Known limitations |
|
|
| - **Lighting drift**: Significant variation during the day; expect distribution shift. Consider color constancy or data augmentation. |
|
|
| - **Camera motion**: Cameras are fixed for the batch, but small nudges may occur; rely on metadata intrinsics/extrinsics if provided. |
|
|
| - **Occlusions**: Self-occlusion of the gripper and cubes in certain positions, especially from left camera during close approach. |
|
|
| - **No depth**: RGB only |
