What a frame contains
Every layer, on every clip in this set.
Rendered from the delivered schema rather than a marketing composite. Toggle layers to see what arrives with the footage.
Synthetic frame, real schema. The sample pack contains the same fields for actual episodes.
Named skills
What the operators were told to do.
Coverage is specified per skill, not per hour. These are the skill lines currently filled in this environment.
- Torque wrench to spec on a wheel
- Fluid drain and fill
- Trim and clip removal without damage
- Diagnostic connector seat and read
- Filter swap in a constrained cavity
Environments captured
- Lift bay
- Tyre bay
- Engine bay work
- Under-vehicle on lift
Condition cells filled
- Mixed light
- 64%
- Low light
- 41% — under-vehicle work with head torch
- Cluttered
- 83% — the most cluttered cells we hold
- Failure cases
- 31% — cross-threads, dropped fasteners, slips
Known failure modes
What goes wrong in this environment.
Published because you will find these in the data within an afternoon, and it is cheaper for both of us if you find them in this list first.
- Under-vehicle capture is IR-hostile: painted and oily surfaces both absorb the projector pattern. Those episodes carry a depth-quality flag.
- Licence plates and VIN plates are blurred at ingest without exception.
What ships with every clip
Ten streams, one clock, one episode file.
Not an à la carte menu. Every validated hour we deliver carries the whole stack, in the schema below, whether you asked for depth or not.
| Stream | Spec | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Head camera | 3840 × 2160 · 60 fps | Global-shutter, 120° HFOV, rolling-shutter-free, H.265 + lossless keyframes |
| Wrist cameras × 2 | 1920 × 1080 · 60 fps | Left + right, 100° HFOV, rigid mount, extrinsics re-solved per session |
| Depth | 848 × 480 · 30 fps | Active stereo, 0.3–4 m range, metric millimetres, per-frame confidence map |
| IMU | 200 Hz · 6-DoF | Accel + gyro, bias-calibrated, hardware-timestamped on the same clock domain |
| Hand pose | 21 keypoints × 2 hands | 3D metric, per-joint visibility flag, contact events on grasp and release |
| Body pose | 24 joints | 3D, root-relative and world-frame, torso and forearm chains resolved |
| Segmentation | Instance masks | Manipulated objects + target surfaces, tracked IDs across the episode |
| Action segments | Verb + noun taxonomy | 97 verbs, 512 nouns, start/end to the frame, human-reviewed |
| Formats | RLDS · LeRobot · WebDataset | Also HDF5, zarr, and .rrd for Rerun. Converters shipped as source. |
| License | Commercial · buyer-owned | Perpetual, irrevocable, model-weights-clean. Exclusivity available. |

Data card
The card that ships with the batch.
Delivered as machine-readable JSON alongside the episodes, so provenance travels with the data instead of living in an email thread.

Flagged frames are shipped rather than silently dropped. You decide whether to mask, down-weight, or exclude them.

How this compares to No comparable public set.
Where a public set is genuinely better at something, we say so. Where the blocker is the license rather than the quality, we say that too.

There is no public egocentric automotive service corpus of any size. This environment exists because two buyers specified it, and it is the clearest case where a coverage program is the only route to the data.
