Robot Data Annotation: A Practical Guide for ML Teams
Robot data annotation is not image labeling with a different name. The temporal structure of robot trajectories, the grounding in physical task semantics, and the precision required at the sub-task level make robot data annotation a distinct discipline that requires its own tooling and annotator qualification framework. Why robot data annotation is not like image […]
VR Teleoperation vs. Physical Demonstration: Which Produces Better Training Data?
Choosing between VR teleoperation and physical demonstration for robot training data is one of the first decisions every robotics team faces. Both work. They do not work equally for every task. Two approaches to VR teleoperation and robot training by example Imitation learning requires demonstrations. The question every robotics team faces early is how to […]
