TASL FR3 — 10-task real-robot manipulation dataset (video format)

Teleoperated (GELLO) demonstrations collected on a Franka FR3 + Robotiq gripper bench at TASL, in LeRobot v2.1 format. Used to LoRA fine-tune π0.5-DROID.

  • 250 episodes — exactly 25 per task, 10 tasks
  • 66,463 frames @ 15 fps (~74 minutes of teleoperation)
  • 2 camera views, 224×224 RGB, stored as h264 mp4 (500 videos)

This is the video-format copy, made so the LeRobot dataset visualizer can open it (that viewer rejects image-only datasets). The image-in-parquet original — which is what the policy was actually trained on — lives at Litian2002/tasl-fr3-10task-250ep. Frame data is identical; only the storage format differs.

Tasks & episode index

Episodes are grouped by task and numbered contiguously — task_index = k covers episode_{25k}episode_{25k+24}, 25 demonstrations each.

eval id is the short code used by the evaluation harness and by the rollout datasets (e.g. T4-a-OOD1_r02_F). It is not stored in this dataset, but the two orderings line up one-to-one.

eval id task_index instruction episodes frames (median / total) watch first demo
T1-a 0 pick up the blue cup and place it into the red cup 024 264 / 6,788 episode_0
T1-b 1 stack the red block on top of the blue block 2549 353 / 10,051 episode_25
T2-a 2 press the blue button 5074 175 / 4,678 episode_50
T2-b 3 close the lid of the wooden shape sorter box 7599 206 / 5,831 episode_75
T3-a 4 align the three colored blocks to the same orientation 100124 193 / 5,099 episode_100
T3-b 5 rotate the red block so that it is perpendicular to the blue block 125149 270 / 7,228 episode_125
T4-a 6 insert the orange block into the wooden shape sorter box 150174 258 / 6,295 episode_150
T4-b 7 insert the book into the black book stand 175199 259 / 7,602 episode_175
T5-a 8 pull the smaller book out of the black book stand 200224 188 / 4,813 episode_200
T5-b 9 pull the small block out from under the large block 225249 317 / 8,078 episode_225
all 10 tasks 250 66,463

File paths

Each episode is three files, indexed by the same zero-padded number:

videos/chunk-000/observation.images.exterior/episode_%06d.mp4   # table view (ZED 2i)
videos/chunk-000/observation.images.wrist/episode_%06d.mp4      # eye-in-hand (ZED Mini)
data/chunk-000/episode_%06d.parquet                             # state / actions / indices

So T4-a (insert the orange block) is episode_000150episode_000174.

Columns

column shape / dtype meaning
observation.images.exterior 224×224×3 video exterior camera (ZED 2i), looking at the table
observation.images.wrist 224×224×3 video wrist camera (ZED Mini, eye-in-hand)
state float32 [8] 7 joint angles + 1 gripper width
actions float32 [8] 7 joint velocities + 1 gripper command, normalized to [-1, 1]
task_index int64 index into meta/tasks.jsonl
episode_index, frame_index, index, timestamp standard LeRobot fields
done, is_success, intervene_flag bool written by the collection stack but constant — carries no information

Notes / caveats

  • No filtering was applied. Every frame recorded during teleoperation is present; no idle-frame removal, no success filtering. Idle frames are effectively absent anyway (only 0.4% of frames have max |joint velocity| < 0.05).
  • is_success and intervene_flag are True on every frame, so they cannot be used to select successful demonstrations.
  • Episode lengths: min 4, 1st pct 124, median 248, 99th pct ~700, max 971 frames. episode_index=172 is only 4 frames long (0.3 s) and should be dropped.
  • The two camera images are a centre-square crop of a 1280×720 ZED frame, resized to 224 — roughly 56% of the original horizontal field of view.
  • Collected 2026-08-16 and 2026-08-20.
