- Daimon-Infinity Tactile Manipulation Dataset
✨ Overview
We are now releasing the first 1,000 hours of the Daimon-Infinity Dataset, entirely collected by our team. The majority of this batch was collected using the DM-DataClaw, while a smaller portion was captured using the DM-DataDex. Both devices support embodiment-free data collection in real environments, enabling improved generalization and scalable data acquisition efficiency.
🤖 Hardware Platform
DM-DataClaw & DM-TacClaw
The DM-DataClaw is a next-generation tactile UMI device with improvements in both hardware and user experience:
Structural Design — Features a lightweight body and ergonomically optimized design, making operation more convenient while providing operators with more direct and stable tactile feedback during data collection.
Interaction System — Integrates headphones and microphones, a mobile mini-app interface, dual physical control buttons, and status indicators, forming a low-latency, intuitive, and efficient human–machine interaction workflow.
Multimodal Sensor Integration — Equipped with a compact wide-angle fisheye camera for visual perception, a stereo camera + IMU module for high-precision spatial trajectory tracking, and fingertip high-resolution tactile sensors along with gripper position encoders, enabling comprehensive vision–tactile–motion data acquisition.
DM-TacClaw is an electrically actuated gripper designed with an isomorphic structure to DM-DataClaw, enabling zero-shot or few-shot deployment, validation, and execution of models trained on DM-DataClaw data:
- Integrated Multimodal Perception — Equipped with a built-in wide-angle fisheye camera covering the manipulation workspace, and two fingers embedded with high-resolution visuotactile sensors, enabling deep fusion of vision and touch for precise perception of environmental context and contact details.
- Balanced Performance and Versatility — Features a large 100 mm stroke and 0.1 mm positioning accuracy, supporting both wide-range grasping and fine manipulation, suitable for stable gripping and complex task execution across diverse objects.
- System Isomorphism and Flexible Control — Maintains a consistent spatial configuration under the fisheye view with the DM-DataClaw, facilitating rapid model transfer and validation; meanwhile, it supports configurable position, velocity, and torque control for highly flexible motion execution and policy adaptation.
DM-DataDex
The DM-DataDex is built on TacExoGaze, an exoskeleton-based multi-modal data acquisition system designed for collecting high-fidelity VTLA data for dexterous manipulation. Rather than using a gripper form factor, TacExoGaze directly captures human hand motion and contact interactions through a wearable exoskeleton instrumented with dense sensing, enabling scalable and precise data collection for embodied AI.
- Form factor — Wearable exoskeleton that preserves natural human hand kinematics during manipulation.
- Tactile sensing — High-resolution sensors distributed across fingertips for capturing deformation, shear, and contact geometry.
- Hand tracking — Exoskeleton joint encoders for finger pose and wrist-mounted trackers for wrist pose.
- Gaze & head tracking — VR headset providing egocentric camera, eye tracking, and 6-DoF head pose.
- Third-view capture — External camera with attached tracker for scene-level observation with registered pose.

🎬 Tasks and Data Content Overview
The dataset covers a wide range of scenarios, including sorting, assembly operations, and pick-and-place tasks. It includes multimodal observations (such as RGB, tactile deformation/shear/depth, joint states, etc.) and a rich set of atomic skills (e.g., grasping, bimanual manipulation, and tool usage).
Semantic Labels
The figure above shows a sample task, demonstrating how a complete robot manipulation video can be segmented into multiple subtasks based on changes in operation states and phases. In this example, the robot has already completed the grasping stage, and the current segment corresponds to the transport phase—where the object is moved to a new position while maintaining a stable grasp.
With this annotation method, a long and continuous manipulation process can be reorganized into a clearer sequence of stages, making it easier for browsing, annotation, retrieval, and downstream tasks such as action understanding, phase recognition, and manipulation learning.
Each data entry is accompanied by multi-dimensional semantic labels, including:
- Object Labels: Category of the manipulated object (e.g., tools, components, daily items, etc.)
- Skill Labels: Atomic action types (e.g., grasping, placing, rotating, inserting, etc.)
- Task & Scene Identifiers: Task encoding and scene classification
- End-effector Type: DataClaw gripper
- Language Description: Natural language description of the task
Data Statistics
Based on approximately 1,209 hours of collected data, we conducted a comprehensive statistical analysis of the dataset from multiple perspectives, including manipulated objects, action semantics, task hierarchy, data source composition, and action duration. The figures below present the object word cloud, action word cloud, task hierarchy, the proportion of data sources from DM-DataClaw and DM-DataDex, and the distribution of action durations. These visualizations provide an intuitive understanding of the dataset’s coverage, structural composition, and long-tail characteristics.
Object Word Cloud: Shows the distribution of manipulated objects in the dataset. |
Action Word Cloud: Shows the distribution of atomic skills and action verbs. |
Task Hierarchy: Illustrates the multi-level organization of the dataset from actions to specific instances. |
Data Source Composition: Shows the proportion of DM-DataClaw and DM-DataDex within the dataset. |
Action Duration Distribution: Shows the duration statistics of different manipulation actions in the dataset.
The statistical results indicate that the dataset covers a wide range of object categories, including daily items, tools, containers, and food, as well as high-frequency manipulation skills such as place, insert, cover, press, and secure. This makes it well-suited for research in multi-task manipulation learning, skill generalization, and semantically conditioned control.

Placeholder Value Description
- The value
9930indicates a placeholder / invalid / inactive dimension - It is recommended to convert this value into a mask before training, rather than treating it as a real physical value during normalization

- RGB videos (
observation.images.*) are typically encoded in H.264, pixel format yuv420p, at 30 FPS - Tactile-derived videos (
observation.deformation.*,observation.shear.*,observation.depth.*) are typically stored as .mov + FFV1 + gbrp16le - Actual encoding and formats may vary depending on the released dataset
Tactile Video Description
Tactile videos include deformation, shear, and depth data, stored in .mov format.
The tactile data is encoded in uint16 and should be properly decoded during processing.
Audio Description
The audio folder contains recorded audio descriptions of tasks provided by the operator.
Metadata Description: episodes_metadata.json
Records left/right sources, operator (data collector), and calibration information separately.
💡 Training Recommendations
- Apply masking to dimensions with the placeholder value
9930; do not treat them as real physical values during normalization - Perform standardization/normalization only on valid dimensions
- Align data temporally using
episode_index + frame_index, and ensure both video and state data use a unifiedfps = 30 - Tactile data is encoded in
uint16; decode and convert it back to floating-point values during processing - For the
dual_ugripperconfiguration, ensure proper synchronization and alignment between left and right streams
📥 Data Access
