🔥 Data Pyramid for Embodied Manipulation: A Survey
Creative & MediaREADME.md
OriginalAwesome Embodied Data Pyramid
This repository accompanies a survey on the data pyramid for robotics and embodied AI. It curates the datasets, data-collection paradigms, simulators, and data-hungry model families reviewed in the survey — spanning real-robot data, UMI (in-the-wild) data, egocentric / ego-exo human data, simulation data, and broad general (web-scale) data — together with the VLA / world-action / embodied-VLM models that consume them. Each entry links to its paper, project page, and code where available.
News 🔥🔥🔥
This project is actively maintained and continuously updated to make embodied data resources easier for the open-source community to discover, access, and download.
- 2026-10-30: Added FineART to real-robot datasets and updated the existing Daimon-Infinity / TacClaw-Infinity UMI entry with its paper and Hugging Face download link; distinguished the paper's 10,000+ hours from the dataset card's first 1,000-hour release.
- 2026-10-21: Added 11 paper/resource records on gaze-aligned teleoperation, human vision-motion-touch capture, human-to-robot data conversion, and simulation data generation; retained explicit release, access, and asset-license limits.
- 2026-10-11: Added 12 verified literature/resource entries across real-robot data, UMI engineering, egocentric supervision, simulation generation, and data curation; separated collected scale from released scale and consolidated World-Env / RehearseVLA.
- 2026-08-22: Added 20 resources from a July–August 2026 arXiv sweep, spanning contact-rich and industrial real-robot datasets (PRISM, SoftVTBench, RoboInter-Data), EgoData Engineering (7 new human-to-robot conversion works), and visuo-tactile world models used as simulators (ViTacWorld, N0-TWAM, OVTF).
- 2026-08-10: Added N0-Foundation and its OpenNeoData release to the real-robot data collection.
- 2026-08-07: Updated the data accumulation figure; introduced the EgoData Engineering collection with Ego2Robot and EgoEngine; and added the CS2-10k and RekaDaily-10k datasets from Reka AI.
- 2026-07-27: Open-sourced the project website and this GitHub project. You are welcome to use the curated links throughout this repository to access and download the collected resources. Issues and pull requests are encouraged to help keep these resources accessible and useful.
We sincerely thank all open-source dataset creators and contributors for their valuable work and continued support of the community. You can also use task-based search on the project website to find and download datasets.
If you have suggestions for new resources, improvements to methodologies, or corrections for broken links, please don't hesitate to open an issue or submit a pull request. Contributions of all kinds are welcome and greatly appreciated.

The Data Pyramid: Data Sources
Real-Robot Data
Table: Recent real-robot datasets
Table: Real-robot datasets (2024 and earlier)
Data curation. FAKTUAL: Diversity You Can Actually Measure uses trajectory-kernel entropy to select diverse demonstration subsets without policy training or online rollouts. Diversity selection does not guarantee demonstration quality.
UMI Data
Table: UMI-style robot-free and cross-embodiment datasets
Collection and post-training extensions.
- PrimeBot Household also collects approximately 1,000 hours of bimanual UMI data. The official release provides staged UMI subsets; the collected total should not be reported as the downloadable total or as additional real-robot hours.
- HIL-UMI uses policy-guided handheld collection and advantage-conditioned post-training on one robot across four tasks. Its reported 5.63x collection throughput on the table-cleanup task is relative to real-robot HG-DAgger, not conventional UMI collection. Project; public code and a standalone dataset were not verified.
- UNI extends robot-free capture to wheeled navigation with a rollator and LiDAR phone (37.2 km / 10.8 hours). This is a navigation extension rather than a manipulation dataset. Project; code, weights, and the privacy-processed dataset remain pending release.
Egocentric & Ego-Exo Data
Table: EgoData Engineering
Release and supervision notes (checked 2026-10-11). HuRo's conversion code is available, but its full derived corpus is pending and third-party components restrict commercial use of the complete pipeline. EgoWild2Dex's code and data are announced rather than verified downloads. Ego-Exo4D-HM releases reconstruction-derived mesh annotations under CC BY 4.0; access to the upstream raw videos remains subject to Ego-Exo4D terms. Its 104.6 hours describe distinct reconstructed motion, whereas about 523 video hours count five camera streams. None of these annotation or retargeting pipelines automatically supplies physically executable, contact-consistent robot demonstrations.

October 2026 availability notes (checked 2026-10-21). EgoExplorer reports 100 collected hours, while its official data card currently describes a one-hour mini release requiring manual access approval under CC BY-NC 4.0; the capture/reconstruction toolkit is still scheduled for release. HumanVerse reports 500 collected hours, but the code repository excludes the full mid-training datasets and complete deployment workflow; its linked sample endpoint was inaccessible in this check. EgoXperience labels its code, EgoX-Data-6M, benchmark, and weights as coming soon. React/ACTS announces code and data upon acceptance. These statuses do not establish that the full collected corpora can be downloaded.
Simulation Data
Curation note. For peer-reviewed work,
YearandPublication / Typeuse the formal publication year and venue. For arXiv-only work,Yearis the first public preprint year. Software without a canonical paper is labeledSoftware. The sections below distinguish reusable 3D/scene assets, simulation backends, evaluation benchmarks, and both downloadable synthetic datasets and systems that generate such data.

Benchmark access. Evo-DexBench separates its Apache 2.0 code/documentation from third-party asset terms; some PartNet assets require upstream access approval. A code license does not grant rights to every bundled or downloaded asset.
