First-person data for activity understanding
Scope complete activities, temporal context, and viewpoint coverage for egocentric perception.
First-person video · Embodied AI
Egocentric data.
A human perspective.
First-person video puts a model close to the work: hands, objects, actions, and the environment around them. Tell us which perspective your research needs.
A direct line to Fiund. Source fit and permissions reviewed for your project.
Task-first scope
Specify the outcome your model needs.
Source context
Keep file meaning and lineage connected.
Reviewable quality
Agree on evidence and acceptance criteria.

Category context
Different sources. Different review questions.
Everyday activities
Preparation, assembly, tidying, and other task sequences. Describe the actions and environments you want represented, including the moments between major steps.
Hands and object interaction
Grasping, tool use, handoffs, and manipulation viewed from the participant. Specify whether hands, contacted objects, and task outcomes must remain visible.
Workplace demonstrations
First-person recordings of practical processes. Identify permitted environments, participant requirements, sensitive areas, and the kind of documentation your project needs.
Why the details matter
Better data starts with a better definition.
An egocentric dataset records an activity from the participant’s point of view. A useful sourcing brief goes beyond hours of footage: it defines the task, camera position, visible interactions, and conditions the model must learn to handle. Data Egocentric is a Fiund sourcing site for teams exploring this category.

Technical scope
Specify the collection before counting the volume.
Viewpoint
Head-mounted, chest-mounted, or another participant-centered view; describe acceptable camera movement.
Task coverage
Action list, sequence length, successful and unsuccessful attempts, and variation between participants.
Capture details
Resolution, frame rate, field of view, audio policy, and any requirements for time alignment.
Annotation
Action boundaries, object references, task descriptions, and the level of detail needed for evaluation.
Real recordings
Real scenes across a changing camera view.
Watch short excerpts from our production work. These are studio camera recordings; an egocentric collection requires its own participant viewpoint and task specification.

How sourcing works
From the first brief to a reviewable handoff.
01 / PROJECT STAGE
Define the target
An egocentric dataset records an activity from the participant’s point of view. A useful sourcing brief goes beyond hours of footage: it defines the task, camera position, visible interactions, and conditions the model must learn to handle. Data Egocentric is a Fiund sourcing site for teams exploring this category.
02 / PROJECT STAGE
Write the specification
Tasks and environments; Camera placement and visibility; Target hours or sequences; Annotations and intended model use; Rights requirements and timeline. These details establish the project’s review criteria and reveal where further clarification is needed.
03 / PROJECT STAGE
Review sourcing fit
Discuss which existing sources or collection approaches could address the brief. Identify access constraints, source documentation, and unanswered permission questions before treating a category as usable inventory.
04 / PROJECT STAGE
Inspect representative material
Where appropriate material can be shared, agree on handling and inspect it against the specification. Record defects, coverage gaps, and annotation questions against exact source identifiers.
05 / PROJECT STAGE
Agree the project scope
Confirm the selected material, intended uses, preparation work, acceptance criteria, commercial terms, and delivery arrangements in a project-specific agreement.
06 / PROJECT STAGE
Review the handoff
Check file references, manifests, documented processing, and accepted exceptions. Keep permission review and technical acceptance explicit, and resolve open issues before the collection is treated as approved for the intended use.

Common questions
Before you source.
Is egocentric video the same as robot demonstration data?
No. A participant’s camera can show a human performing a task without recording robot actions or control signals. Tell us if you need synchronized robot state, action data, or other sensors; video alone should not be treated as a substitute.
Can I request a particular workplace or activity?
Yes, include it in your inquiry. Fiund will review sourcing feasibility, access, participant permissions, and capture constraints before discussing a suitable collection.
Is a dataset ready to download here?
This site is a sourcing inquiry point. Availability, samples, permitted uses, and delivery details are established for the specific project, rather than promised by the category page.
