[Hiring] Video Data Contributor @Workstream

Role Description

We are looking for paid participants to record videos of everyday activities while wearing a head-mounted camera. Your recordings will help robotics systems learn to perceive, understand, and interact with real-world environments.

• You’ll record yourself doing tasks you already do in daily life, such as:
• Folding laundry
• Preparing or cooking food
• Cleaning, tidying, or organizing items
• Rearranging or sorting objects
• Participants may or may not be assigned specific tasks, depending on project needs.
• If you’re detail-oriented, comfortable performing everyday tasks, and want to earn additional income while contributing to cutting-edge robotics research, we’d love to work with you!

Qualifications

• Own a smartphone with a wide camera (0.5x zoom) capable of 1080p/30 FPS
• Have access to a computer or laptop and a stable internet connection to upload videos to Google Drive
• Able to follow detailed instructions carefully
• Comfortable performing light physical tasks (standing, reaching, grasping objects)
• Able to move naturally, slowly, and deliberately during recordings
• Knowledgeable in uploading, organizing, and managing video files on Google Drive

Requirements

• Weekly footage goal: Capture at least 10 hours of clear, intentional arm, hand, and finger movements interacting with objects (e.g., folding clothes, using a screwdriver).
• Avoid low-value activities such as typing, using your phone, or sitting idle.
• Upload videos to Google Drive on time, perform basic quality checks, and track your daily filming progress.
• Meet the required filming hours.
• Follow all submission guidelines.
• Open communication if you encounter challenges.

Benefits

• Compensation:
• $2 USD/hour for the first 10 hours (initial period)
• $3 USD/hour for all subsequent approved footage that meets quality standards
• Bonuses:
• $10 USD headgear reimbursement upon completion of the first 10 hours (regardless of approval)
• $10 USD one-time bonus upon completion of the next 10 hours of approved footage
• $20 USD one-time bonus upon reaching 50 hours of approved footage within the first month
• Payment Terms:
• Compensation is based solely on approved and qualified footage.
• Payments are processed via Deel on a monthly basis and released at the end of each month.
• Footage must be submitted and approved within the applicable payout cycle to be included in that month’s payment.
• Participants whose start date falls on or after the second week of the month will receive their first payment in the subsequent month’s payout cycle.
