First-person perspective
Capture natural, wearer-perspective footage that shows what a person sees while completing a task.
Physical AI Data Collection
Bring the real world into your AI training data
Collect first-person video of people performing everyday and specialist tasks. Annotexia helps robotics and embodied AI teams build thoughtfully planned egocentric datasets around real actions, objects, and environments.

Data from the actor’s point of view
Give embodied systems richer examples of how tasks unfold
Physical AI depends on more than recognizing objects. Systems also need examples of how people move through spaces, handle tools, and interact with objects over time.
Egocentric video makes those interactions visible from a first-person perspective. A well-designed collection plan helps teams capture relevant actions with consistent coverage and useful context.
We work with you to define the capture protocol, coordinate collection, and prepare reviewed video data for research and model development.
Collection capabilities
Purpose-built first-person datasets
A flexible collection program shaped around your research question, operating environment, and data requirements.
Human-object interaction
Record hands, tools, objects, and action sequences as they come together in real environments.
Task-focused capture
Structure collection around your scenarios, task steps, environments, and coverage requirements.
Dataset-ready delivery
Organize and review video assets with consistent metadata and project-specific delivery conventions.
Where it helps
Real-world data for embodied intelligence
Support the development of systems that need to perceive, reason, and act in physical spaces.
Collection protocols can incorporate project-defined consent, access, and sensitive-content handling requirements.

A clear process
From collection plan to reviewed dataset
A coordinated workflow helps keep field capture aligned with your project goals.
Define the study
Align on target tasks, participant criteria, environments, capture devices, and success criteria.
Prepare protocols
Create practical recording instructions, consent materials, file conventions, and capture checklists.
Collect real-world video
Coordinate structured first-person recording sessions across the agreed tasks and settings.
Review and deliver
Check completeness, technical quality, metadata, and agreed privacy requirements before handoff.
Collection scope, participant volume, locations, equipment, and final deliverables are defined together during project planning.
Frequently asked questions
Planning egocentric data collection
What is egocentric video collection?+
Egocentric video is recorded from a first-person perspective, often using a head-mounted or wearable camera. It gives AI teams visual examples of tasks and interactions from the actor's point of view.
How is this useful for physical AI?+
First-person recordings can help teams study how people perceive and act in physical environments. They can support datasets for robotics, embodied AI, task understanding, and human-object interaction research.
Can collection follow our own task protocol?+
Yes. Collection plans can be tailored to your task list, environments, participant profile, capture equipment, metadata schema, and delivery requirements.
How do you address privacy during collection?+
Privacy requirements are agreed during project design. Protocols can include participant consent, environment guidance, restricted access, and review or handling rules for sensitive content, subject to the project scope.
