Physical AI data glossary

Consent artifact means a record showing that a contributor or site granted permission for data capture and downstream use. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is consent artifact
• Consent artifact definition

Data provenance means the record of where data came from, how it was collected, what rights apply, and how it changed before delivery. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is data provenance definition
• Data provenance definition definition

Egocentric data means first-person video or sensor data captured from the perspective of a person or embodied actor. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is egocentric data
• Egocentric data definition

Off-the-shelf dataset means an existing dataset a supplier can license without running a new capture program. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is off The Shelf dataset
• Off The Shelf dataset definition

Physical AI training data means data that teaches models to perceive, reason about, and act in real or simulated physical environments. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is physical AI training data definition
• Physical AI training data definition definition

Robot demonstrations means task examples showing a robot or human demonstrator completing a behavior that a model should learn or evaluate. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is robot demonstrations

Sim-to-real gap means the performance gap between behavior learned in simulation and behavior deployed in real physical environments. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is sim to real gap
• Sim to real gap definition

Teleoperation data means robot observations, state, and action traces recorded while a human remotely controls the robot. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is teleoperation data definition
• Teleoperation data definition definition

VLA model means a vision-language-action model that connects visual observations and language context to physical actions. The term matters because it turns a model or procurement concept into concrete data requirements you can evaluate samples against.

• What is VLA model
