Source notes

DROID (Distributed Robot Interaction Dataset) is a large-scale in-the-wild robot manipulation dataset of 76,000 teleoperated demonstration trajectories (~350 hours), collected across 564 scenes and 84 tasks by 50 collectors over 12 months in North America, Asia, and Europe (13 institutions). Every episode uses a standardized Franka Panda 7-DoF arm with two exterior ZED 2 stereo cameras and a wrist-mounted ZED Mini, recording RGB/stereo video, depth, joint and Cartesian proprioception, camera calibration, and natural-language annotations (3 per episode for ~95% of successful episodes). It is distributed in RLDS (1.7TB) and raw stereo HD MP4 (8.7TB) formats, with a community LeRobot port, and is included in the OpenVLA training mix.
