Odin Lovis of fal confirmed in reply to a robot-training discussion that fal has started training robots too, sharing a photo of a dual-arm manipulation rig in their office — two gripper-equipped robot arms with multiple cameras, a typical bimanual data-collection/training setup.
Notable move: fal, known for image/video inference services, is now expanding into embodied AI training.
