A wrist camera froze mid-episode: bad data is robotics' quiet bottleneck
chris_j_paxton · x · 2026-10-02
A robotics practitioner shares a real incident: one wrist camera froze and then disconnected mid-episode, appearing as pure noise to the world model. Chris Paxton notes such data-quality issues are extremely common in datasets, and robotics currently struggles to learn from bad data — highlighting robustness to corrupted sensor data as a practical bottleneck for embodied training.
