Egocentric First-Person POV Household Activities Dataset
Access a purpose-built collection of HD egocentric video capturing everyday household activities directly from the participant's point of view. The dataset focuses on natural object interaction, task execution, appliance use, household workflows, and daily living activities for embodied AI, robotics, first-person vision, and procedural understanding.
Initial pilot productions have been completed, with the collection currently available for expansion and pre-order. Consistent production standards and realistic household environments provide a foundation for scalable first-person data acquisition, including bespoke commissioned production around specific tasks, objects, environments, and model requirements.
Dataset Preview
Representative first-person previews showing household tasks, object manipulation, appliance use, food preparation, cleaning, organisation, and other daily activities from the participant's perspective.
Preview assets should be selected from completed pilot productions and expanded as additional commissioned content becomes available.
