Open-HumanWAM: An Open Recipe for Scaling Human and Robot Experience for Embodied Foundation Models

Open-HumanWAM: An Open Recipe for Scaling Human and Robot Experience for Embodied Foundation Models

Summary

This paper introduces Open-HumanWAM, the first fully open recipe for scaling egocentric pretraining to 50,000 hours.

Editorial context

The authors present Open-HumanWAM, an open-source framework and dataset comprising 50,000 hours of egocentric human video annotated with hand motion and natural language, which they use to train world-action models that achieve state-of-the-art performance on RoboTwin 2.0 benchmarks in both clean and randomization settings.

arXiv:2611.06817v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Egocentric human video offers a scalable source of manipulation priors for robot learning, yet translating raw data scale into generalizable robot policies demands rigorous data curation and training recipes. We introduce Open-HumanWAM, the first fully open recipe for scaling egocentric pretraining to 50,000 hours, anchored by Open-HumanWAM-50K---a curated ego

centric video corpus densely annotated with hand motion and natural language. Leveraging this corpus, we systematically investigate pure human pretraining via closed-loop simulation evaluations and uncover an empirical log-linear scaling law linking pretraining data hours to downstream robot success rates. Grounded in these findings, we develop HumanWAM-Vanilla, a world--action model pretrained exclusively on 50k hou

On physical robots, HumanWAM-Goal further exhibits emergent embodied in-context learning, dynamically adapting its manipulation behavior to unseen visual goals without parameter updates. To suppor

Implications for data suppliers

RoboSignal interpretation and collection questions, not statements of buyer demand.

  • Check whether the intended buyer needs human observations, hand or object annotations, or aligned robot actions. Human video alone does not provide robot commands.
  • Compare the reported units and scope before using these quantities in a budget. Recording hours, sensor-hours and trajectories are different measures.
  • Validate demand and acceptance criteria with a buyer before scaling. Publication, popularity and a research result do not establish a purchase commitment.
