RoboEdit: Turning Human Manipulation Videos into Scalable Robot Experience
TL;DR
RoboEdit is presented, a human-to-robot video editing suite that transforms human manipulation videos into action-consistent, physically plausible robot videos with aligned 3D hand states, providing scalable, high-fidelity visual and 3D motion supervision for generalizable robot learning.
Abstract
Collecting robot hand-object interaction data is costly and embodiment-specific, yet abundant human-object videos remain unusable for robot training. We present RoboEdit, a human-to-robot video editing suite that transforms human manipulation videos into action-consistent, physically plausible robot videos with aligned 3D hand states. To enable scalable supervision, we introduce RoboEdit-ADC, an automatic pipeline that reconstructs and retargets 3D interactions from RGB videos across embodiments. This pipeline generates RoboEdit-14M, a large-scale dataset of 174K aligned video pairs (14M frames) spanning seven robot embodiments, diverse scenes, and interaction types. The core editing engine, RoboEdit-Trans, employs cross-embodiment adaptation modules to preserve temporal coherence while adapting appearance and motion. It further integrates a 3D Robot-State Decoder to recover per-frame hand states for structured motion supervision. Experiments show that RoboEdit achieves state-of-the-art editing quality and supports downstream robot control policies in real-world manipulation tasks. Ultimately, the RoboEdit suite unlocks the vast potential of unlabeled human videos, providing scalable, high-fidelity visual and 3D motion supervision for generalizable robot learning.
