Exylos Bimanual Spill Cleanup — Rich-Modality 50-Episode Sample
50 episodes of a bimanual Franka Panda wiping a liquid spill off a tabletop. Synthetic, VR-teleop demonstrations retargeted to two 7-DoF arms — 6 RGB views (3 with depth + segmentation), 6-DoF object poses, and a ground-truth
dirty_fractioncleanliness signal, packaged in LeRobot v2.1.
Release note: this rich-modality v2 release replaces the original public 50-episode preview in place. The previous dataset remains reproducible at
legacy-public-v1. The v2 release contains a different episode set, camera rig, outcome distribution, and frame schema; consumers requiring the original files should pin that tag.
✅ Use it / ❌ Skip it
Use it for
- Fine-tuning a bimanual-Franka manipulation policy (ACT, Diffusion Policy, π0, VLA) on a contact-rich wiping task.
- Perception: depth + 7-class segmentation + 6-DoF object poses + a ground-truth
dirty_fractioncleanliness signal. - Failure detection / reward modeling: 35 of 50 episodes are incomplete cleanups — labeled negatives are included on purpose.
- Pipeline validation / inspection-scale experiments for checking loaders, modalities, annotations, bimanual coordination signals, and sim-to-real research fit before requesting a larger training-scale release.
Skip it if you need
- A from-scratch training corpus — 50 episodes (15 clean successes) is a fine-tune/eval-scale sample, not a large BC dataset.
- Force / torque / tactile signals — not included in this release.
- A non-Franka embodiment without retargeting, or real-world sensor data (this is synthetic).
At a glance
| Episodes / frames | 50 / 115,204 (≈64 min @ 30 FPS) |
| Outcome split | 15 success / 35 cleanup-incomplete (next.success, episode.termination_reason) |
| Success threshold | Episode success means terminal liquid_spill.dirty_fraction <= 0.01 (<=1% dirty area); otherwise the termination reason is cleanup_incomplete. |
| Robot | Bimanual Franka Emika Panda, 2× 7-DoF + parallel grippers |

| Task / language | 1 task instruction + frame-level phase & subtask labels (838 phase / 76 subtask records) |
| Format | LeRobot v2.1 — Parquet + MP4 + NPZ + MKV + JSON/CSV metadata |

Ready to use out of the box: LeRobot v2.1 layout, normalization stats for the proprio/action vectors (min/max/mean/std/count) precomputed in meta/episodes_stats.jsonl, named joints/EE channels, and documented TCP + coordinate frames in meta/info.json / meta/cameras.json.

What you get
- 6 RGB views —
front_cam,head_cam,left_cam_45,right_cam_45,wrist_cam_l,wrist_cam_r(30 FPS, 1280×960, no audio). - Depth — float32 metric depth for
wrist_cam_l,head_cam,wrist_cam_r(packed NPZ, referenced per frame). - Segmentation — FFV1 MKV label-map streams for the same 3 views; 7 classes (see below).
- Dual-arm state/action — 18-D joint
observation.stateandaction; gripper open-scale, semantic mode, and activity labels per arm (hysteresis defined inmeta/info.json). - End-effector — packed 16-D
state.end_effector/ 28-Daction.end_effector, plus explicit per-armobservation.ee_pose(robot-local) andobservation.ee_pose_world. TCP = gripper grasp center; frames follow ROS REP 103. - Object state — per-frame
observation.object_poses(sponge, cup/obstacle, liquid_spill) with positions, orientations, linear velocities, andliquid_spill.dirty_fraction∈ [0,1] as a ground-truth cleanliness label. An episode is marked successful when the terminalliquid_spill.dirty_fraction <= 0.01(<=1% dirty area). - Annotations & QA — per-episode success/failure + termination reason, plus quality scores, raw measurements, and frozen-frame counts in
annotations.json; frame-level phase & subtask ranges inmetadata.csv/subtask_metadata.csv. - Calibration — intrinsics, lens params, and static extrinsics for all 6 cameras in
meta/cameras.json.

Exact packed-vector slices for the EE channels are in meta/modality.json; joint and EE channels are named in meta/info.json (left_panda_joint1 …).
In the canonical data/ parquet, observation.object_poses / ee_pose / ee_pose_world are native list<struct>. In the flattened viewer_data mirror (what load_dataset returns) they are serialized as JSON strings — apply json.loads.

Scaling up
This 50-episode release is an inspection-scale slice of a larger generation pipeline backed by 10,000+ hours of human-seeded trajectories. A training-scale release — more episodes, more tasks, additional randomization, and USD/Isaac scene assets — can be provided on request.
The full release is schema-identical to this sample: validate your loaders and policies on these 50 episodes, then scale up without changing a line of code.

Notes & limitations
- Synthetic data with domain randomization across 8 axes (distractor layouts, object poses, initial states, physics, lighting, environment, materials, sensor noise); no real-world sensor captures in this release.
sim-to-realis an intended use case, not a claim of real data. - Language is task-level (1 instruction) plus frame-level phase/subtask labels — not a large free-form language corpus.
- Heavy media: full repo ≈209 GB (depth NPZ ≈189 GB).
load_datasetreads only the ~62 MB of parquet references — fetchvideos/(RGB/depth/masks) only for the views and episodes you actually need. - No force/torque/contact/tactile streams in this release.
- Canonical frame-level Parquet uses Arrow map fields for segmentation; some
datasetsversions can't infer this — use PyArrow for canonical loading, or the default flattened config fordatasets.
