Artisan
Sensory Fusion

Robotics training data
from the toughest manual work.

We design and run on-site capture projects for robotics data teams. Starting with automotive finishing and service work, we bring together what people see, touch and do.

Discuss a capture pilot

Video, touch
and movement.

A hand disappears behind a part. Pressure changes along an edge. The finish tells the operator when to stop. We design the capture around these details.

Illustrated capture sequence

Wearer’s view

Egocentric video of the tools, hands and workpiece from the person doing the work.

Observer’s view

Exocentric video from a second person, showing the action and its surroundings.

Hand pressure

Contact pressure measured at the instrumented hand or glove.

Surface texture

Tactile signals from contact with the material as the work progresses.

Joint position

Instrumented hand and joint tracking, including movements hidden from the cameras.

Each pilot agrees the sensor setup, timing checks and measurement limits for the task.

Starting with
automotive work.

For robotics data teams working with carmakers, specialist workshops and service centres.

Manual finishing

Record how an operator follows a contour, adjusts pressure and judges a surface.

  • Surface preparation and sanding
  • Detail painting and masking
  • Polishing, correction and inspection

Service and repair

Record the hand movements and decisions inside a real disassembly, repair or rebuild.

  • Inspection and fault-finding
  • Component removal and fitting
  • Assembly and final checks

A dataset your team
can work with.

We agree the episodes, signals and annotations your team needs, then deliver the recordings with the context and quality checks to interpret them.

You define the training question. We build the capture around it.

  1. Define the work

    Choose a task, the operators and the question your data needs to answer.

  2. Capture on site

    Set up around the real work. Record the technique, contact and result.

  3. Review together

    Check a sample against the agreed criteria before expanding the collection.

Tell us what
you need to capture.

Bring a task, an environment and a training question. We’ll scope the first collection with you.
