Laundromat loading and unloading task video for AI

Physical Intelligence documents training and evaluation across tasks including laundry handling. Troveo markets first-person recordings of hands manipulating objects. A laundromat can demonstrate how the operator moves clean practice textiles through an unpowered machine while annotating the loading and unloading states.

Use business-owned textiles and an unplugged demonstration unit. Record sorting, loading, closing and later unloading as separately labeled clips. Include a clip where the last item is blocked by the door and label that uncertainty. Use the equipment log, if authorized, for actual cycle times as a separate dataset.
Keep customers, garments with identifying marks, payments and live wash controls out. Clear rights to footage and the filming location.
Describe a laundry handling demonstration
Original Fiund exercise
Closing the door does not show whether the last textile was loaded
Business-owned clean practice textiles and an unplugged demonstration unit support original handling clips. No actual wash cycle, customer garment or payment data is recorded.
| Record | Source | What it records |
|---|---|---|
| LM1 | Sorting view | Items A, B and C tagged and visible on the practice table. |
| LM2 | Loading clip | A and B visibly enter the unit. C moves toward the opening but is hidden by the door; door then closes. |
| LM3 | Unloading clip | A and B visible coming out. Final interior and C are not shown; no powered-cycle log supplied. |
Question for the model
Which loading and unloading events are observed, and does door closure establish C's inclusion or a completed wash cycle?
Show the reference answer and checks
LM2 visibly supports loading A and B, while C's final placement is obscured. LM3 visibly supports unloading A and B without resolving C or the unseen interior. Door closure does not establish C's inclusion, an empty final unit or an actual completed wash cycle. Preserve the handling sequence and visibility gap rather than adding operating states absent from this unplugged demonstration.
- Inferring the last item's destination after it becomes occluded.
- Treating a closed door or paired loading/unloading clips as evidence of a powered cycle.
Fields to preserve
- Tagged textile identity
- Connects objects across clips.
- Loading and unloading time spans
- Separates observed handling events.
- Door occlusion and interior coverage
- Makes missing final-state evidence explicit.
Test another case
Show a second station layout where C is visibly set aside before closure. Test whether the model follows the new destination rather than the repeated door action.
Use owned clean textiles and an unplugged unit. Exclude customers, identifying garment marks, payments and live machine controls.
