AI Data Collection Participant – POV Video Recording

Location: USA, Canada, Australia, Southeast Asia (Remote) Project Type: Freelance / Project-Based Compensation: USD 5 per approved recording hour About the Project TSMG is recruiting participants for a pilot Artificial Intelligence (AI) data collection project. The purpose of this project is to collect high-quality first-person (egocentric) video recordings of everyday household activities. The collected data will support the development of next-generation AI and robotics technologies by providing real-world examples of human interactions with objects and home environments. What You’ll Do Participants will capture everyday household activities from a first-person perspective, following the instructions and guidelines provided for the project. Typical activities may include: • First-person (POV) recording using a head-mounted smartphone or equivalent device • Recording must reflect natural human viewpoint • Handheld, tripod, or surface-mounted recordings are NOT allowed • Preparing and cooking meals • Cleaning and tidying the home • Doing laundry and ironing • Unpacking and organizing groceries • Arranging household items • Other routine activities around the home Visibility & Framing Rules: • Hands and objects must be clearly visible at all times • No blurred or out-of-focus footage • No faces visible (including mirrors, photos, reflections) • No IDs, documents, personal data Content Rules: • Hands and relevant objects should remain clearly visible throughout the recording. • No idle time longer than 3 seconds. Record continuously while actively performing the task. Avoid pauses or idle periods longer than 3 seconds. • Only meaningful household tasks (kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom) • No eating, drinking, washing hands, sitting idle, or unrelated activities • Raw video files only. Do not trim, edit, add filters, overlays, effects, or text. Original audio must remain intact. No prior experience is required.
