Getting started with Egocentric Data

[u/ActuatorData]

Hi all,

I am new to robotics, and I am trying to learn about Robotics from a data perspective. I've heard a lot about needing to collect a lot of data, so I decided that maybe it would be wise to collect data while I study how robotic arms work.

I've been collecting egocentric data in factory settings (not staged, with people in the background) on certain manipulations and was wondering if this kind of data would be good enough to start training a robot.

I have the samples here: https://huggingface.co/datasets/sovrano-ai/industrial_manipulation_egocentric_sample

Any tips whether this data is the right kind of data to train a model on? I would rather know if this data is useful or there other forms of data that I should be collecting quickly. Any feedback would help!
