BitRobot (formerly FrodoBots) has open-sourced FrodoBots-2K, a dataset of approximately 2,000 hours of urban robot navigation data that has been used by teams such as DeepMind, Meta, and UC Berkeley. Jonathan Victor, President of BitRobot, stated that the company aims to crowdsource real-world embodied AI data through a decentralized network, rather than the traditional "factory" model. Solana is used to record and compensate contributors' work due to its low cost, ease of use, and robust infrastructure, which helps capture long-tail edge case data.
