Robot Lovers Rejoice! Fei-Fei Li Stanford Team Crowd-Sources World's Largest Robot Manipulation Dataset

#artificialintelligence

Two years ago, Stanford Artificial Intelligence Lab Director Fei-Fei Li and her team launched the global platforms RoboTurk and Surreal to crowd-source high-quality task demonstration data that could help researchers working in robotic manipulation. Now, the wait is over. The Stanford Vision and Learning Lab announced this week that the RoboTurk Real Roboto Dataset is available as a free download. The crowdsourcing produced 111.25 hours of video from 54 non-expert demonstrators to build "one of the largest, richest, and most diverse robot manipulation datasets ever collected using human creativity and dexterity." Participants used smartphones and browsers to access the original RoboTurk crowdsourcing platform, where they could remotely control robot simulations in real time.
