ABC-130K: The largest open source teleoperation dataset | Blog | XDOF

130K+ episodes, 200 complex manipulation tasks. All on a low-cost bimanual rig. Fully open source under Apache 2.0.

The momentum behind robotics is unprecedented. New advancements up and down the stack have driven incredible energy and interest into the space. They’ve provided the world with a tangible look at the path towards general-purpose robots. It’s much needed: as language models have created fully agent-driven experiences, we are left painfully aware of the gap between what’s possible in the digital vs. the physical. The researchers’ scramble for data is one we know well from our days at UC Berkeley and beyond. Too often, researchers are forced to piece together whatever bits of data they can…
