At IROS, jonstephens85 interviewed Bayley Wang, founder of PrismaX, on tackling the shortage of high-quality robot training data.
- Data quality: Complex manipulation tasks require skilled teleoperators, not random factory workers; PrismaX collects real-robot data at near-human operating speed.
- Data access: Their platform lets researchers and small robotics teams browse and purchase training datasets directly, skipping the traditional sales process—ideal for small research projects.
They also discussed task complexity, data collection at scale, and what makes a useful dataset for robot learning.
