Human data for robot world models

Teach your robot
to understand people.

Biomechanically faithful human motion, the objects people interact with, and the space they move through β€” captured in real time from standard RGB cameras, or extracted from video with natural-language annotations. Training data for world models. Perception for robots that work alongside people.
Written end-to-end in Rust πŸ¦€.

Ready to run.
Ready to build on.

Start with Zendo β€” a turnkey desktop app for real-time human motion capture, teleoperation and human–robot interaction. Then send your recordings to Yume and get back annotated, world-model-ready training data.

Zendo Β· Real-time capture

Capture human motion. In real-time. With one click.

Zendo is a native desktop app that turns a standard RGB camera into a real-time human motion capture system. Run it in monocular mode with a single camera, or add more for stereo mode β€” which unlocks millimeter-range accuracy from a one-click multi-camera calibration. Stream the motion live for teleoperation, safety and human–robot interaction, or record and upload straight to Yume.

  • Native desktop app β€” macOS and Linux
  • Monocular mode: plug in one RGB camera and go
  • Stereo mode: 2+ cameras, mm-range accuracy, one-click calibration
  • 80 DOF, biomechanically-faithful human motion
  • SDK for streaming live data to your own robot/application
  • Upload recordings to Yume for annotation
Yume Β· Video-to-data engineComing soon

Turn video into world-model training data.

Upload footage from Zendo and Yume extracts the ground truth: high-accuracy 3D human movement analysis, 3D reconstruction of the objects people interact with, and natural-language annotations of what happens in every clip. Data for world models that understand people and the environments they live and work in.

  • High-accuracy 3D human movement analysis β€” 80 DOF, biomechanically faithful
  • 3D objects β€” reconstruct what people interact with
  • Natural-language annotations of every scene
  • Upload directly from Zendo

Applications

Built for robots that work with people.

From world-model training data to real-time control β€” the same stack powers them all.

01 β€” World models

World-model training data

Capture rich, multi-modal human datasets β€” 3D motion, hands, objects, depth and language annotations β€” to train world models that understand how people move and interact with their environment.

02 β€” Data

Large-scale data collection

Run markerless capture in the field β€” in clinics, warehouses, factories, homes β€” and collect biomechanically accurate motion data without slowing anyone down.

03 β€” Teleoperation & HRI

Teleoperation & interaction policies

Stream real-time human motion to teleoperate robots, or give control policies the perception to cooperate, yield, hand over objects and stay safe around people.

04 β€” Monitoring

Continuous monitoring & analytics

Ergonomics, rehabilitation, safety, sports β€” track human motion over time with privacy-preserving, on-device analysis.
