Nvidia patents method to create new robot training videos from existing footage

Nvidia describes a system that takes videos of a robot performing a task and uses them to create new videos showing the robot doing the same task in different ways. This process generates additional data to help train robotic devices to handle various scenarios.

Why it mattersThis technique could help robots learn more efficiently by expanding their training data without needing to film every possible variation manually.

In the filing’s own words

Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to generate data to train a robotic device to perform tasks. In at least one embodiment, one or more first videos of a robotic device performing a task is used to generate one or more second videos of the robotic device performing the task differently than depicted in the one or more first videos.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A processor comprising: one or more circuits to use one or more first videos of a robotic device performing a task to generate one or more second videos of the robotic device performing the task differently than depicted in the one or more first videos.
