Dual-arm kitchen manipulation in homes

Bimanual kitchen task capture in residential layouts with contact-rich interaction, calibrated multi-view video, and object labels.

This is a custom capture program for dual-arm kitchen manipulation in real residential homes. We record bimanual cabinet, drawer, and utensil tasks with synchronized RGB-D, force-torque, and proprioception, plus object interaction labels. Real kitchens supply the layout, lighting, and object variety that lab benches cannot, exactly the variation that decides whether domestic manipulation policies generalize.

What we collect

Opening cabinets, transferring utensils, and contact-rich manipulations with calibrated multi-view video, captured bimanually so both arms and their coordination are represented.

Sensors and modalities

Synchronized RGB-D, force-torque, and proprioception, time-aligned through our multi-sensor synchronization service, so contact events and motion correspond precisely.

How capture works

Demonstrations are gathered through teleoperation capture. A pilot validates rig, consent, and labeling, then capture scales across homes and tasks.

QA and metadata

Episodes carry task type, object set, contact outcome, and scene tags. QA covers sync, calibration, and label completeness against agreed criteria.

Who it is for

Home robotics labs and bimanual manipulation teams, adjacent to humanoid robotics work. Provides high-quality robot demonstration data for imitation-learning pipelines.

Scenario FAQ

Consent workflows, anonymization options, and minimal-retention policies are defined upfront before capture in occupied homes.

Real kitchens vary in layout, lighting, and objects in ways labs do not, which is where domestic manipulation policies tend to fail.

Opening cabinets and drawers, transferring utensils, and contact-rich interactions, captured bimanually with synchronized force and vision.
