01. Manipulation startup
Challenge
Needed thousands of demos of contact-rich pick-and-place with proprietary parts; in-house capture blocked the model milestone.
Approach
Custom task scripts, multi-camera RGB-D, action annotation, weekly validation batches.
Deliverables
Versioned episodes, QA reports, LeRobot-oriented package.
Outcome
Policy training started on schedule; QA failure modes informed a second capture round.
