LeRobot format
An episodic dataset format used by the LeRobot robot-learning ecosystem.
Definition
The LeRobot format is the dataset layout used by the LeRobot ecosystem for imitation and robot learning, storing episodes with synchronized observation and action frames plus metadata. It is a common target for teams training manipulation policies from demonstration.
01
Why it matters
Delivering in a format your training stack already reads removes a conversion step and the bugs that come with it. LeRobot has become a de-facto interchange for demonstration data.
02
How Firsthand handles it
Firsthand exports LeRobot-format datasets directly, with the same nanosecond-aligned streams as every other export.
