Open X-Embodiment is a large-scale collaborative initiative led by Google DeepMind to unify robotic learning datasets into a consistent and standardized format, simplifying access and usage across the robotics research community. Its primary goal is to make all available open-source robotic data interoperable by representing them using the RLDS (Reinforcement Learning Dataset Structure) episode format. This enables seamless integration for training, evaluation, and model development across diverse robotic tasks and embodiments. The dataset aggregates contributions from multiple open-source robotic projects, all harmonized under a single unified data schema. The repository also provides Colab notebooks for dataset visualization, batching, and model inference, along with pretrained model checkpoints such as RT-1-X, a multitask robotic transformer model trained on this data.
