Collector opportunity
Egocentric Video Data Collector - Peru
TrueLabel accepts Peru-based collectors for egocentric video collector opportunities at $16-$22 per approved hour of usable footage. Egocentric video collection uses a continuous wearable point of view: a head or chest mount keeps the camera moving with your gaze so a whole session is captured hands-free. Unlike a task-led handheld shot, the camera does not stop and reframe between steps. You wear an approved mount, run through an approved routine, and submit the raw session. Only accepted footage is paid. Neighborhood-mercado and market-stall handling leads demand in Peru, followed by home-kitchen food-prep sequences. Payouts settle in USD and are sent by transfer to your Peruvian bank account; you add your account details during onboarding and accepted work is paid through the twice-weekly queue.
Before you apply
In this Perucollector opportunity, you record approved task footage that shows how everyday actions happen from the collector's point of view. The footage helps physical AI and robotics teams learn from real hand-object motion, device framing, surfaces, and task flow rather than from staged or synthetic examples.
Start by reviewing the opportunity details below, then use our background pages on first-person video data, hand-object interaction data, and egocentric video privacy and consent to understand why stable framing, raw uploads, and privacy discipline matter before you submit a sample.

What you will record
This is an evergreen collector opportunity for people in Peru who can record egocentric task footage from the collector's own point of view. Use a head or chest mount that holds a steady eye-line POV at 1080p/30fps minimum; level the mount before recording and avoid touching it mid-session. A matching brief may ask you to capture tasks such as home routines, meal prep, errands, multi-step chores across neighborhood mercados and market stalls, home kitchens, small workshops and counters, with raw files and clear framing. The single most common rejection is a mount that tilts or slips so the routine drifts out of the eye-line.
| Task area | Examples |
|---|---|
| Primary task examples | home routines, meal prep, and other approved everyday workflows |
| Object interaction | Wear a steady head or chest mount that holds a natural eye-line for the whole session |
| Where you record | Typical Peru settings include neighborhood mercados and market stalls, home kitchens, small workshops and counters, apartment living spaces, in spaces you control with no private information in frame |
| Repeat captures | errands, multi-step chores, and controlled task variations when the brief asks for multiple examples |
| Qualification sample | A passing sample proves you can wear an approved mount and capture a continuous, steady multi-step routine without the eye-line drifting off task. |
Requirements
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Eligibility | Peru-based collectors join as independent contributors, must be 18 or older, and confirm that any market stall or shop they film has given permission before recording. |
| Device | recent smartphone, head mount, chest mount, or wearable/action camera |
| Capture spec | Use a head or chest mount that holds a steady eye-line POV at 1080p/30fps minimum; level the mount before recording and avoid touching it mid-session. |
| Market setup | Recent smartphone with stable handheld setup for home-kitchen and market-stall capture |
| Environment | Safe recording space with faces, IDs, screens, addresses, and private documents kept out of frame |
| Availability | Able to complete a sample capture and claim matching work when eligible tasks open |
Review and payment
Every submission is checked for task completion, framing, privacy, file quality, and duplicate content. Accepted footage enters the payment queue. If a submission needs a reshoot, the review note will explain what to fix.
| Outcome | Rule |
|---|---|
| Accepted | The wearable point of view is continuous and steady across the whole routine; Each step of the routine is captured without large gaps or cuts; The eye-line stays natural so the task ahead of you is always visible |
| Needs reshoot | The single most common rejection is a mount that tilts or slips so the routine drifts out of the eye-line. Reshoots also follow when lighting is weak, task steps are incomplete, or the capture angle does not match the brief. |
| Rejected | The mount slips, tilts, or points away from the task for long stretches; The session is cut into staged single shots instead of a continuous capture; Bystander faces or private details appear without being excluded or blurred |
| Paid | Accepted hours are paid at $16-$22 per approved hour of usable footage through the twice-weekly queue. Rejected, duplicate, unsafe, or off-brief submissions are not eligible for payment. |

FAQ
Do I need previous AI data collection experience?
No. You need eligible location, suitable equipment, a safe recording setup, privacy discipline, and the ability to follow detailed capture instructions. Peru-based collectors join as independent contributors, must be 18 or older, and confirm that any market stall or shop they film has given permission before recording.
Can I apply from outside Peru?
This page is for collectors in Peru. TrueLabel has separate collector opportunity pages for other markets when location eligibility supports them.
Can I record other people?
No unless a specific brief explicitly permits it. Keep faces, bystanders, IDs, documents, addresses, screens, and private information out of the footage.

Accepted hours are paid at $16-$22 per approved hour of usable footage.
