Ropedia launches next-gen wearable capture device for robotic AI training data
Singapore-based robotics data infrastructure firm Ropedia Pte. Ltd. today announced the launch of HOMIE Gen2, the next generation of the company’s head-mounted wearable that records human movement data to train robots. Smart robotics requires tremendous amounts of high-quality data taken from various environments. Most of the training data used to build the artificial intelligence foundation […]…
Robotics data infrastructure company Ropedia has launched HOMIE Gen2, an advanced wearable device designed to record human movements for training robotic AI models. The wearable, shaped like a crown, sits atop the head and moves with the wearer's head, hands, and body, capturing the environment and actions as seen from the human perspective.
With four camera streams, spatial audio, and motion data, HOMIE Gen2 provides rich metadata that enables AI models to train more effectively and accurately in various environments, including homes, factories, and shopping malls. The device is designed to be easily deployable, requiring no external rig and cutting down on setup time and costs by up to 10 times compared to previous generations.
HOMIE Gen2 follows a $22 million pre-Series A funding round to support Ropedia's engineering efforts.
