Flora: Open-source data engine for robotics foundation models unveiled

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new open-source industrial data engine called Flora has been developed to support robotics foundation models. This engine is capable of large-scale, accurate, and cost-effective data labeling, including captioning, outcome reward labeling, and process reward labeling. Flora has demonstrated state-of-the-art performance on several benchmarks and is significantly cheaper than API-based alternatives, processing 200,000 hours of data daily. AI

IMPACT Enables researchers to scale custom robotics datasets and explore new applications like physical auto-research.
