Open Source Robot Datasets Reach 10k Hours for Foundation Models

Original post

I think this means you can collect ~10k hours just from open source datasets, which means basically anyone should be able to build a decent robot foundation model:

500 from the new BitRobot dataset 500 from galaxea https://huggingface.co/datasets/OpenGalaxea/Galaxea-Open-World-Dataset 3000 from agibot https://huggingface.co/datasets/agibot-world/AgiBotWorld2026 ~3000 from Open X embodiment (though it's mostly pretty bad data) https://robotics-transformer-x.github.io/ 830 from EgoDex https://github.com/apple/ml-egodex ~30 from humanoid-everyday (but good quality) https://huggingface.co/datasets/USC-PSI-Lab/humanoid-everyday 3500 from ABC https://huggingface.co/datasets/XDOF/ABC-130k

500 hours of data 🤯

We’re still far from internet scale, but incredible that researchers are releasing open source data

Ah another 1k from MolmoAct2, how could I forget: https://huggingface.co/collections/allenai/molmoact2-datasets

Some overlap with Open X though

Another 3k and we're getting close to 15k total data: https://www.modelscope.cn/datasets/Eureka1064/FTP-1-Dataset
