    > **Note:** If you don't install simulation environments with `--all-extras`, the tests that require them will be skipped when running the pytest suite locally. However, they *will* be tested in the CI. In general, we advise you to install everything and test locally before pushing.
 
-   Whichever command you chose to install the project (e.g. `poetry install --sync --all-extras`), you should run it again when pulling code with an updated version of `pyproject.toml` and `poetry.lock` in order to synchronize your virtual environment with the new dependencies.

 ## Installation
 
 Download our source code:
 ```bash
-git clone https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git && cd lerobot
+git clone https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
+cd lerobot
 ```
 
 Create a virtual environment with Python 3.10 and activate it, e.g. with [`miniconda`](https://docs.anaconda.com/free/miniconda/index.html):
 ```bash
-conda create -y -n lerobot python=3.10 && conda activate lerobot
+conda create -y -n lerobot python=3.10
+conda activate lerobot
 ```
 
+When using `miniconda`, install `ffmpeg` in your environment:
+```bash
+conda install ffmpeg -c conda-forge
+```
+
+> **NOTE:** This usually installs `ffmpeg 7.X` for your platform compiled with the `libsvtav1` encoder. If `libsvtav1` is not supported (check supported encoders with `ffmpeg -encoders`), you can:
+>  - _[On any platform]_ Explicitly install `ffmpeg 7.X` using:
+>  ```bash
+>  conda install ffmpeg=7.1.1 -c conda-forge
+>  ```
+>  - _[On Linux only]_ Install [ffmpeg build dependencies](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu#GettheDependencies) and [compile ffmpeg from source with libsvtav1](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu#libsvtav1), and make sure you use the corresponding ffmpeg binary to your install with `which ffmpeg`.
+
 Install 🤗 LeRobot:
 ```bash
-pip install .
+pip install -e .
 ```
 
-> **NOTE:** Depending on your platform, If you encounter any build errors during this step
-you may need to install `cmake` and `build-essential` for building some of our dependencies.
-On linux: `sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential`
+> **NOTE:** If you encounter build errors, you may need to install additional dependencies (`cmake`, `build-essential`, and `ffmpeg libs`). On Linux, run:
+`sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential python3-dev pkg-config libavformat-dev libavcodec-dev libavdevice-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libswresample-dev libavfilter-dev pkg-config`.

+### The `LeRobotDataset` format
+
+A dataset in `LeRobotDataset` format is very simple to use. It can be loaded from a repository on the Hugging Face hub or a local folder simply with e.g. `dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/aloha_static_coffee")` and can be indexed into like any Hugging Face and PyTorch dataset. For instance `dataset[0]` will retrieve a single temporal frame from the dataset containing observation(s) and an action as PyTorch tensors ready to be fed to a model.
+
+A specificity of `LeRobotDataset` is that, rather than retrieving a single frame by its index, we can retrieve several frames based on their temporal relationship with the indexed frame, by setting `delta_timestamps` to a list of relative times with respect to the indexed frame. For example, with `delta_timestamps = {"observation.image": [-1, -0.5, -0.2, 0]}`  one can retrieve, for a given index, 4 frames: 3 "previous" frames 1 second, 0.5 seconds, and 0.2 seconds before the indexed frame, and the indexed frame itself (corresponding to the 0 entry). See example [1_load_lerobot_dataset.py](examples/1_load_lerobot_dataset.py) for more details on `delta_timestamps`.
+
+Under the hood, the `LeRobotDataset` format makes use of several ways to serialize data which can be useful to understand if you plan to work more closely with this format. We tried to make a flexible yet simple dataset format that would cover most type of features and specificities present in reinforcement learning and robotics, in simulation and in real-world, with a focus on cameras and robot states but easily extended to other types of sensory inputs as long as they can be represented by a tensor.
+
+Here are the important details and internal structure organization of a typical `LeRobotDataset` instantiated with `dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/aloha_static_coffee")`. The exact features will change from dataset to dataset but not the main aspects:
+
+```
+dataset attributes:
+  ├ hf_dataset: a Hugging Face dataset (backed by Arrow/parquet). Typical features example:
+  │  ├ observation.images.cam_high (VideoFrame):
+  │  │   VideoFrame = {'path': path to a mp4 video, 'timestamp' (float32): timestamp in the video}
+  │  ├ observation.state (list of float32): position of an arm joints (for instance)
+  │  ... (more observations)
+  │  ├ action (list of float32): goal position of an arm joints (for instance)
+  │  ├ episode_index (int64): index of the episode for this sample
+  │  ├ frame_index (int64): index of the frame for this sample in the episode ; starts at 0 for each episode
+  │  ├ timestamp (float32): timestamp in the episode
+  │  ├ next.done (bool): indicates the end of an episode ; True for the last frame in each episode
+  │  └ index (int64): general index in the whole dataset
+  ├ episode_data_index: contains 2 tensors with the start and end indices of each episode
+  │  ├ from (1D int64 tensor): first frame index for each episode — shape (num episodes,) starts with 0
+  │  └ to: (1D int64 tensor): last frame index for each episode — shape (num episodes,)
+  ├ stats: a dictionary of statistics (max, mean, min, std) for each feature in the dataset, for instance
+  │  ├ observation.images.cam_high: {'max': tensor with same number of dimensions (e.g. `(c, 1, 1)` for images, `(c,)` for states), etc.}
+  │  ...
+  ├ info: a dictionary of metadata on the dataset
+  │  ├ codebase_version (str): this is to keep track of the codebase version the dataset was created with
+  │  ├ fps (float): frame per second the dataset is recorded/synchronized to
+  │  ├ video (bool): indicates if frames are encoded in mp4 video files to save space or stored as png files
+  │  └ encoding (dict): if video, this documents the main options that were used with ffmpeg to encode the videos
+  ├ videos_dir (Path): where the mp4 videos or png images are stored/accessed
+  └ camera_keys (list of string): the keys to access camera features in the item returned by the dataset (e.g. `["observation.images.cam_high", ...]`)
+```
+
+A `LeRobotDataset` is serialised using several widespread file formats for each of its parts, namely:
+- hf_dataset stored using Hugging Face datasets library serialization to parquet
+- videos are stored in mp4 format to save space
+- metadata are stored in plain json/jsonl files
+
+Dataset can be uploaded/downloaded from the HuggingFace hub seamlessly. To work on a local dataset, you can specify its location with the `root` argument if it's not in the default `~/.cache/huggingface/lerobot` location.

+## Questions
+What is the optimal trade-off between:
+- maximizing loading time with random access,
+- minimizing memory space on disk,
+- maximizing success rate of policies,
+- compatibility across devices/platforms for decoding videos (e.g. video players, web browsers).
+
+How to encode videos?
+- Which video codec (`-vcodec`) to use? h264, h265, AV1?
+- What pixel format to use (`-pix_fmt`)? `yuv444p` or `yuv420p`?
+- How much compression (`-crf`)? No compression with `0`, intermediate compression with `25` or extreme with `50+`?
+- Which frequency to chose for key frames (`-g`)? A key frame every `10` frames?
+
+How to decode videos?
+- Which `decoder`? `torchvision`, `torchaudio`, `ffmpegio`, `decord`, or `nvc`?
+- What scenarios to use for the requesting timestamps during benchmark? (`timestamps_mode`)
+
+
+## Variables
+**Image content & size**
+We don't expect the same optimal settings for a dataset of images from a simulation, or from real-world in an apartment, or in a factory, or outdoor, or with lots of moving objects in the scene, etc. Similarly, loading times might not vary linearly with the image size (resolution).
+For these reasons, we run this benchmark on four representative datasets:
+- `lerobot/pusht_image`: (96 x 96 pixels) simulation with simple geometric shapes, fixed camera.
+- `aliberts/aloha_mobile_shrimp_image`: (480 x 640 pixels) real-world indoor, moving camera.
+- `aliberts/paris_street`: (720 x 1280 pixels) real-world outdoor, moving camera.
+- `aliberts/kitchen`: (1080 x 1920 pixels) real-world indoor, fixed camera.
+
+Note: The datasets used for this benchmark need to be image datasets, not video datasets.
+
+**Data augmentations**
+We might revisit this benchmark and find better settings if we train our policies with various data augmentations to make them more robust (e.g. robust to color changes, compression, etc.).
+
+### Encoding parameters
+| parameter   | values                                                       |
+|-------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
+| **vcodec**  | `libx264`, `libx265`, `libsvtav1`                            |
+| **pix_fmt** | `yuv444p`, `yuv420p`                                         |
+| **g**       | `1`, `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`, `6`, `10`, `15`, `20`, `40`, `None` |
+| **crf**     | `0`, `5`, `10`, `15`, `20`, `25`, `30`, `40`, `50`, `None`   |
+
+Note that `crf` value might be interpreted differently by various video codecs. In other words, the same value used with one codec doesn't necessarily translate into the same compression level with another codec. In fact, the default value (`None`) isn't the same amongst the different video codecs. Importantly, it is also the case for many other ffmpeg arguments like `g` which specifies the frequency of the key frames.
+
+For a comprehensive list and documentation of these parameters, see the ffmpeg documentation depending on the video codec used:
+- h264: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/H.264
+- h265: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/H.265
+- AV1: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/AV1
+
+### Decoding parameters
+**Decoder**
+We tested two video decoding backends from torchvision:
+- `pyav`
+- `video_reader` (requires to build torchvision from source)
+
+**Requested timestamps**
+Given the way video decoding works, once a keyframe has been loaded, the decoding of subsequent frames is fast.
+This of course is affected by the `-g` parameter during encoding, which specifies the frequency of the keyframes. Given our typical use cases in robotics policies which might request a few timestamps in different random places, we want to replicate these use cases with the following scenarios:
+- `1_frame`: 1 frame,
+- `2_frames`: 2 consecutive frames (e.g. `[t, t + 1 / fps]`),
+- `6_frames`: 6 consecutive frames (e.g. `[t + i / fps for i in range(6)]`)
+
+Note that this differs significantly from a typical use case like watching a movie, in which every frame is loaded sequentially from the beginning to the end and it's acceptable to have big values for `-g`.
+
+Additionally, because some policies might request single timestamps that are a few frames apart, we also have the following scenario:
+- `2_frames_4_space`: 2 frames with 4 consecutive frames of spacing in between (e.g `[t, t + 5 / fps]`),
+
+However, due to how video decoding is implemented with `pyav`, we don't have access to an accurate seek so in practice this scenario is essentially the same as `6_frames` since all 6 frames between `t` and `t + 5 / fps` will be decoded.
+
+
+## Metrics
+**Data compression ratio (lower is better)**
+`video_images_size_ratio` is the ratio of the memory space on disk taken by the encoded video over the memory space taken by the original images. For instance, `video_images_size_ratio=25%` means that the video takes 4 times less memory space on disk compared to the original images.
+
+**Loading time ratio (lower is better)**
+`video_images_load_time_ratio` is the ratio of the time it takes to decode frames from the video at a given timestamps over the time it takes to load the exact same original images. Lower is better. For instance, `video_images_load_time_ratio=200%` means that decoding from video is 2 times slower than loading the original images.
+
+**Average Mean Square Error (lower is better)**
+`avg_mse` is the average mean square error between each decoded frame and its corresponding original image over all requested timestamps, and also divided by the number of pixels in the image to be comparable when switching to different image sizes.
+
+**Average Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (higher is better)**
+`avg_psnr` measures the ratio between the maximum possible power of a signal and the power of corrupting noise that affects the fidelity of its representation. Higher PSNR indicates better quality.
+
+**Average Structural Similarity Index Measure (higher is better)**
+`avg_ssim` evaluates the perceived quality of images by comparing luminance, contrast, and structure. SSIM values range from -1 to 1, where 1 indicates perfect similarity.
+
+One aspect that can't be measured here with those metrics is the compatibility of the encoding across platforms, in particular on web browser, for visualization purposes.
+h264, h265 and AV1 are all commonly used codecs and should not pose an issue. However, the chroma subsampling (`pix_fmt`) format might affect compatibility:
+- `yuv420p` is more widely supported across various platforms, including web browsers.
+- `yuv444p` offers higher color fidelity but might not be supported as broadly.
+
+
+<!-- **Loss of a pretrained policy (higher is better)** (not available)
+`loss_pretrained` is the result of evaluating with the selected encoding/decoding settings a policy pretrained on original images. It is easier to understand than `avg_l2_error`.
+
+**Success rate after retraining (higher is better)** (not available)
+`success_rate` is the result of training and evaluating a policy with the selected encoding/decoding settings. It is the most difficult metric to get but also the very best. -->
+
+
+## How the benchmark works
+The benchmark evaluates both encoding and decoding of video frames on the first episode of each dataset.
+
+**Encoding:** for each `vcodec` and `pix_fmt` pair, we use a default value for `g` and `crf` upon which we change a single value (either `g` or `crf`) to one of the specified values (we don't test every combination of those as this would be computationally too heavy).
+This gives a unique set of encoding parameters which is used to encode the episode.
+
+**Decoding:** Then, for each of those unique encodings, we iterate through every combination of the decoding parameters `backend` and `timestamps_mode`. For each of them, we record the metrics of a number of samples (given by `--num-samples`). This is parallelized for efficiency and the number of processes can be controlled with `--num-workers`. Ideally, it's best to have a `--num-samples` that is divisible by `--num-workers`.
+
+Intermediate results saved for each `vcodec` and `pix_fmt` combination in csv tables.
+These are then all concatenated to a single table ready for analysis.
+
+## Caveats
+We tried to measure the most impactful parameters for both encoding and decoding. However, for computational reasons we can't test out every combination.
+
+Additional encoding parameters exist that are not included in this benchmark. In particular:
+- `-preset` which allows for selecting encoding presets. This represents a collection of options that will provide a certain encoding speed to compression ratio. By leaving this parameter unspecified, it is considered to be `medium` for libx264 and libx265 and `8` for libsvtav1.
+- `-tune` which allows to optimize the encoding for certain aspects (e.g. film quality, fast decoding, etc.).
+
+See the documentation mentioned above for more detailed info on these settings and for a more comprehensive list of other parameters.
+
+Similarly on the decoding side, other decoders exist but are not implemented in our current benchmark. To name a few:
+- `torchaudio`
+- `ffmpegio`
+- `decord`
+- `nvc`
+
+Note as well that since we are mostly interested in the performance at decoding time (also because encoding is done only once before uploading a dataset), we did not measure encoding times nor have any metrics regarding encoding.
+However, besides the necessity to build ffmpeg from source, encoding did not pose any issue and it didn't take a significant amount of time during this benchmark.
+
+
+## Install
+Building ffmpeg from source is required to include libx265 and libaom/libsvtav1 (av1) video codecs ([compilation guide](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu)).

+**Note:** While you still need to build torchvision with a conda-installed `ffmpeg<4.3` to use the `video_reader` decoder (as described in [#220](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/pull/220)), you also need another version which is custom-built with all the video codecs for encoding. For the script to then use that version, you can prepend the command above with `PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"`, which is where ffmpeg should be built.
+
+
+## Adding a video decoder
+Right now, we're only benchmarking the two video decoder available with torchvision: `pyav` and `video_reader`.
+You can easily add a new decoder to benchmark by adding it to this function in the script:
+```diff
+def decode_video_frames(
+    video_path: str,
+    timestamps: list[float],
+    tolerance_s: float,
+    backend: str,
+) -> torch.Tensor:
+    if backend in ["pyav", "video_reader"]:
+        return decode_video_frames_torchvision(
+            video_path, timestamps, tolerance_s, backend
+        )
++    elif backend == ["your_decoder"]:
++        return your_decoder_function(
++            video_path, timestamps, tolerance_s, backend
++        )
+    else:
+        raise NotImplementedError(backend)
+```
+
+
+## Example
+For a quick run, you can try these parameters:
+```bash
+python benchmark/video/run_video_benchmark.py \
+    --output-dir outputs/video_benchmark \
+    --repo-ids \
+        lerobot/pusht_image \
+        aliberts/aloha_mobile_shrimp_image \
+    --vcodec libx264 libx265 \
+    --pix-fmt yuv444p yuv420p \
+    --g 2 20 None \
+    --crf 10 40 None \
+    --timestamps-modes 1_frame 2_frames \
+    --backends pyav video_reader \
+    --num-samples 5 \
+    --num-workers 5 \
+    --save-frames 0
+```
+
+
+## Results
+
+### Reproduce
+We ran the benchmark with the following parameters:
+```bash
+# h264 and h265 encodings
+python benchmark/video/run_video_benchmark.py \
+    --output-dir outputs/video_benchmark \
+    --repo-ids \
+        lerobot/pusht_image \
+        aliberts/aloha_mobile_shrimp_image \
+        aliberts/paris_street \
+        aliberts/kitchen \
+    --vcodec libx264 libx265 \
+    --pix-fmt yuv444p yuv420p \
+    --g 1 2 3 4 5 6 10 15 20 40 None \
+    --crf 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 40 50 None \
+    --timestamps-modes 1_frame 2_frames 6_frames \
+    --backends pyav video_reader \
+    --num-samples 50 \
+    --num-workers 5 \
+    --save-frames 1
+
+# av1 encoding (only compatible with yuv420p and pyav decoder)
+python benchmark/video/run_video_benchmark.py \
+    --output-dir outputs/video_benchmark \
+    --repo-ids \
+        lerobot/pusht_image \
+        aliberts/aloha_mobile_shrimp_image \
+        aliberts/paris_street \
+        aliberts/kitchen \

+    --backends pyav \
+    --num-samples 50 \

+
+
+### Parameters selected for LeRobotDataset
+Considering these results, we chose what we think is the best set of encoding parameter:
+- vcodec: `libsvtav1`
+- pix-fmt: `yuv420p`
+- g: `2`
+- crf: `30`
+
+Since we're using av1 encoding, we're choosing the `pyav` decoder as `video_reader` does not support it (and `pyav` doesn't require a custom build of `torchvision`).
+
+### Summary
+
+These tables show the results for `g=2` and `crf=30`, using `timestamps-modes=6_frames` and `backend=pyav`

+
+# Generating the documentation
+
+To generate the documentation, you first have to build it. Several packages are necessary to build the doc,
+you can install them with the following command, at the root of the code repository:
+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[docs]"
+```
+
+You will also need `nodejs`. Please refer to their [installation page](https://nodejs.org/en/download)
+
+---
+**NOTE**
+
+You only need to generate the documentation to inspect it locally (if you're planning changes and want to
+check how they look before committing for instance). You don't have to `git commit` the built documentation.
+
+---
+
+## Building the documentation
+
+Once you have setup the `doc-builder` and additional packages, you can generate the documentation by
+typing the following command:
+
+```bash
+doc-builder build lerobot docs/source/ --build_dir ~/tmp/test-build
+```
+
+You can adapt the `--build_dir` to set any temporary folder that you prefer. This command will create it and generate
+the MDX files that will be rendered as the documentation on the main website. You can inspect them in your favorite
+Markdown editor.
+
+## Previewing the documentation
+
+To preview the docs, first install the `watchdog` module with:
+
+```bash
+pip install watchdog
+```
+
+Then run the following command:
+
+```bash
+doc-builder preview lerobot docs/source/
+```
+
+The docs will be viewable at [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000). You can also preview the docs once you have opened a PR. You will see a bot add a comment to a link where the documentation with your changes lives.
+
+---
+**NOTE**
+
+The `preview` command only works with existing doc files. When you add a completely new file, you need to update `_toctree.yml` & restart `preview` command (`ctrl-c` to stop it & call `doc-builder preview ...` again).
+
+---
+
+## Adding a new element to the navigation bar
+
+Accepted files are Markdown (.md).
+
+Create a file with its extension and put it in the source directory. You can then link it to the toc-tree by putting
+the filename without the extension in the [`_toctree.yml`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/docs/source/_toctree.yml) file.
+
+## Renaming section headers and moving sections
+
+It helps to keep the old links working when renaming the section header and/or moving sections from one document to another. This is because the old links are likely to be used in Issues, Forums, and Social media and it'd make for a much more superior user experience if users reading those months later could still easily navigate to the originally intended information.
+
+Therefore, we simply keep a little map of moved sections at the end of the document where the original section was. The key is to preserve the original anchor.
+
+So if you renamed a section from: "Section A" to "Section B", then you can add at the end of the file:
+
+```
+Sections that were moved:
+
+[ <a href="#section-b">Section A</a><a id="section-a"></a> ]
+```
+and of course, if you moved it to another file, then:
+
+```
+Sections that were moved:
+
+[ <a href="../new-file#section-b">Section A</a><a id="section-a"></a> ]
+```
+
+Use the relative style to link to the new file so that the versioned docs continue to work.
+
+For an example of a rich moved sections set please see the very end of [the transformers Trainer doc](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/docs/source/en/main_classes/trainer.md).
+
+### Adding a new tutorial
+
+Adding a new tutorial or section is done in two steps:
+
+- Add a new file under `./source`. This file can either be ReStructuredText (.rst) or Markdown (.md).
+- Link that file in `./source/_toctree.yml` on the correct toc-tree.
+
+Make sure to put your new file under the proper section. If you have a doubt, feel free to ask in a Github Issue or PR.
+
+### Writing source documentation
+
+Values that should be put in `code` should either be surrounded by backticks: \`like so\`. Note that argument names
+and objects like True, None or any strings should usually be put in `code`.
+
+#### Writing a multi-line code block
+
+Multi-line code blocks can be useful for displaying examples. They are done between two lines of three backticks as usual in Markdown:
+
+
+````
+```
+# first line of code
+# second line
+# etc
+```
+````
+
+#### Adding an image
+
+Due to the rapidly growing repository, it is important to make sure that no files that would significantly weigh down the repository are added. This includes images, videos, and other non-text files. We prefer to leverage a hf.co hosted `dataset` like
+the ones hosted on [`hf-internal-testing`](https://huggingface.co/hf-internal-testing) in which to place these files and reference
+them by URL. We recommend putting them in the following dataset: [huggingface/documentation-images](https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images).
+If an external contribution, feel free to add the images to your PR and ask a Hugging Face member to migrate your images
+to this dataset.

+# Assemble SO-101
+
+In the steps below we explain how to assemble our flagship robot, the SO-101.
+
+## Source the parts
+
+Follow this [README](https://github.com/TheRobotStudio/SO-ARM100). It contains the bill of materials, with a link to source the parts, as well as the instructions to 3D print the parts,
+and advice if it's your first time printing or if you don't own a 3D printer.
+
+Before assembling, you will first need to configure your motors. To this end, we provide a nice script, so let's first install LeRobot. After configuration, we will also guide you through assembly.
+
+## Install LeRobot
+
+To install LeRobot follow our [Installation Guide](./installation)
+
+## Configure motors
+
+To configure the motors designate one bus servo adapter and 6 motors for your leader arm, and similarly the other bus servo adapter and 6 motors for the follower arm. It's convenient to label them and write on each motor if it's for the follower `F` or for the leader `L` and it's ID from 1 to 6.
+
+You now should plug the 5V or 12V power supply to the motor bus. 5V for the STS3215 7.4V motors and 12V for the STS3215 12V motors. Note that the leader arm always uses the 7.4V motors, so watch out that you plug in the right power supply if you have 12V and 7.4V motors, otherwise you might burn your motors! Now, connect the motor bus to your computer via USB. Note that the USB doesn't provide any power, and both the power supply and USB have to be plugged in.
+
+### Find the USB ports associated to each arm
+
+To find the port for each bus servo adapter, run this script:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/find_motors_bus_port.py
+```
+##### Example outputs of script
+
+<hfoptions id="example">
+<hfoption id="Mac">
+
+Example output leader arm's port: `/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751`
+
+```bash
+Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
+['/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081', '/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751']
+Remove the usb cable from your MotorsBus and press Enter when done.
+
+[...Disconnect leader arm and press Enter...]
+
+The port of this MotorsBus is /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751
+Reconnect the usb cable.
+```
+
+Example output follower arm port: `/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081`
+
+```
+Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
+['/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081', '/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751']
+Remove the usb cable from your MotorsBus and press Enter when done.
+
+[...Disconnect follower arm and press Enter...]
+
+The port of this MotorsBus is /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081
+Reconnect the usb cable.
+```
+
+</hfoption>
+<hfoption id="Linux">
+
+On Linux, you might need to give access to the USB ports by running:
+```bash
+sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyACM0
+sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyACM1
+```
+
+Example output leader arm port: `/dev/ttyACM0`
+
+```bash
+Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
+['/dev/ttyACM0', '/dev/ttyACM1']
+Remove the usb cable from your MotorsBus and press Enter when done.
+
+[...Disconnect leader arm and press Enter...]
+
+The port of this MotorsBus is /dev/ttyACM0
+Reconnect the usb cable.
+```
+
+Example output follower arm port: `/dev/ttyACM1`
+
+```
+Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
+['/dev/ttyACM0', '/dev/ttyACM1']
+Remove the usb cable from your MotorsBus and press Enter when done.
+
+[...Disconnect follower arm and press Enter...]
+
+The port of this MotorsBus is /dev/ttyACM1
+Reconnect the usb cable.
+```
+</hfoption>
+</hfoptions>
+
+#### Update config file
+
+Now that you have your ports, update the **port** default values of [`SO101RobotConfig`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/lerobot/common/robot_devices/robots/configs.py).
+You will find a class called `so101` where you can update the `port` values with your actual motor ports:
+```diff
+@RobotConfig.register_subclass("so101")
+@dataclass
+class So101RobotConfig(ManipulatorRobotConfig):
+    calibration_dir: str = ".cache/calibration/so101"
+    # `max_relative_target` limits the magnitude of the relative positional target vector for safety purposes.
+    # Set this to a positive scalar to have the same value for all motors, or a list that is the same length as
+    # the number of motors in your follower arms.
+    max_relative_target: int | None = None
+
+    leader_arms: dict[str, MotorsBusConfig] = field(
+        default_factory=lambda: {
+            "main": FeetechMotorsBusConfig(
+-               port="/dev/tty.usbmodem58760431091",
++               port="{ADD YOUR LEADER PORT}",
+                motors={

+                    "gripper": [6, "sts3215"],
+                },
+            ),
+        }
+    )

+                },
+            ),
+        }
+    )
+```
+
+Here is a video of the process:

+
+## Step-by-Step Assembly Instructions
+
+The follower arm uses 6x STS3215 motors with 1/345 gearing. The leader however uses three differently geared motors to make sure it can both sustain its own weight and it can be moved without requiring much force. Which motor is needed for which joint is shown in table below.
+
+| Leader-Arm Axis | Motor | Gear Ratio |
+|-----------------|:-------:|:----------:|
+| Base / Shoulder Yaw | 1 | 1 / 191 |
+| Shoulder Pitch      | 2 | 1 / 345 |
+| Elbow               | 3 | 1 / 191 |
+| Wrist Roll          | 4 | 1 / 147 |
+| Wrist Pitch         | 5 | 1 / 147 |
+| Gripper             | 6 | 1 / 147 |
+
+### Set motor IDs
+
+Plug your motor in one of the two ports of the motor bus and run this script to set its ID to 1. Replace the text after --port to the corresponding control board port.
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/configure_motor.py \
+  --port /dev/tty.usbmodem58760432961 \
+  --brand feetech \
+  --model sts3215 \
+  --baudrate 1000000 \
+  --ID 1
+```
+
+Then unplug your motor and plug the second motor and set its ID to 2.
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/configure_motor.py \
+  --port /dev/tty.usbmodem58760432961 \
+  --brand feetech \
+  --model sts3215 \
+  --baudrate 1000000 \
+  --ID 2
+```
+
+Redo this process for all your motors until ID 6. Do the same for the 6 motors of the leader arm, but make sure to change the power supply if you use motors with different voltage and make sure you give the right ID to the right motor according to the table above.

+
+## Calibrate
+
+Next, you'll need to calibrate your SO-101 robot to ensure that the leader and follower arms have the same position values when they are in the same physical position.
+The calibration process is very important because it allows a neural network trained on one SO-101 robot to work on another.
+
+#### Manual calibration of follower arm
+
+You will need to move the follower arm to these positions sequentially, note that the rotated position is on the right side of the robot and you have to open the gripper fully.
+
+| 1. Middle position | 2. Zero position                                                                                                                                       | 3. Rotated position                                                                                                                                             | 4. Rest position                                                                                                                                       |
+| ------------ |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

+
+Make sure both arms are connected and run this script to launch manual calibration:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=so101 \
+  --robot.cameras='{}' \
+  --control.type=calibrate \
+  --control.arms='["main_follower"]'
+```
+
+#### Manual calibration of leader arm
+You will also need to move the leader arm to these positions sequentially:
+

+# Getting Started with Real-World Robots
+
+This tutorial will explain you how to train a neural network to autonomously control a real robot.
+
+**You'll learn:**
+1. How to record and visualize your dataset.
+2. How to train a policy using your data and prepare it for evaluation.
+3. How to evaluate your policy and visualize the results.
+
+By following these steps, you'll be able to replicate tasks like picking up a Lego block and placing it in a bin with a high success rate, as demonstrated in [this video](https://x.com/RemiCadene/status/1814680760592572934).
+
+This tutorial is specifically made for the affordable [SO-101](https://github.com/TheRobotStudio/SO-ARM100) robot, but it contains additional information to be easily adapted to various types of robots like [Aloha bimanual robot](https://aloha-2.github.io) by changing some configurations. The SO-101 consists of a leader arm and a follower arm, each with 6 motors. It can work with one or several cameras to record the scene, which serve as visual sensors for the robot.
+
+During the data collection phase, you will control the follower arm by moving the leader arm. This process is known as "teleoperation." This technique is used to collect robot trajectories. Afterward, you'll train a neural network to imitate these trajectories and deploy the network to enable your robot to operate autonomously.
+
+If you encounter any issues at any step of the tutorial, feel free to seek help on [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/s3KuuzsPFb) or don't hesitate to iterate with us on the tutorial by creating issues or pull requests.
+
+## Setup and Calibrate
+
+If you haven't yet setup and calibrate the SO-101 follow these steps:
+1. [Find ports and update config file](./assemble_so101#find-the-usb-ports-associated-to-each-arm)
+2. [Calibrate](./assemble_so101#calibrate)
+
+## Teleoperate
+
+Run this simple script to teleoperate your robot (it won't connect and display the cameras):
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=so101 \
+  --robot.cameras='{}' \
+  --control.type=teleoperate
+```
+
+The teleoperate command will automatically:
+1. Identify any missing calibrations and initiate the calibration procedure.
+2. Connect the robot and start teleoperation.
+
+## Setup Cameras
+
+To connect a camera you have three options:
+1. OpenCVCamera which allows us to use any camera: usb, realsense, laptop webcam
+2. iPhone camera with MacOS
+3. Phone camera on Linux
+
+### Use OpenCVCamera
+
+The [`OpenCVCamera`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/cameras/opencv.py) class allows you to efficiently record frames from most cameras using the [`opencv2`](https://docs.opencv.org) library.  For more details on compatibility, see [Video I/O with OpenCV Overview](https://docs.opencv.org/4.x/d0/da7/videoio_overview.html).
+
+To instantiate an [`OpenCVCamera`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/cameras/opencv.py), you need a camera index (e.g. `OpenCVCamera(camera_index=0)`). When you only have one camera like a webcam of a laptop, the camera index is usually `0` but it might differ, and the camera index might change if you reboot your computer or re-plug your camera. This behavior depends on your operating system.
+
+To find the camera indices, run the following utility script, which will save a few frames from each detected camera:
+```bash
+python lerobot/common/robot_devices/cameras/opencv.py \
+    --images-dir outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras
+```
+
+The output will look something like this if you have two cameras connected:
+```
+Mac or Windows detected. Finding available camera indices through scanning all indices from 0 to 60
+[...]
+Camera found at index 0
+Camera found at index 1
+[...]
+Connecting cameras
+OpenCVCamera(0, fps=30.0, width=1920.0, height=1080.0, color_mode=rgb)
+OpenCVCamera(1, fps=24.0, width=1920.0, height=1080.0, color_mode=rgb)
+Saving images to outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras
+Frame: 0000	Latency (ms): 39.52
+[...]
+Frame: 0046	Latency (ms): 40.07
+Images have been saved to outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras
+```
+
+Check the saved images in `outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras` to identify which camera index corresponds to which physical camera (e.g. `0` for `camera_00` or `1` for `camera_01`):
+```
+camera_00_frame_000000.png
+[...]
+camera_00_frame_000047.png
+camera_01_frame_000000.png
+[...]
+camera_01_frame_000047.png
+```
+
+Note: Some cameras may take a few seconds to warm up, and the first frame might be black or green.
+
+Now that you have the camera indexes, you should specify the camera's in the config.
+
+### Use your phone
+<hfoptions id="use phone">
+<hfoption id="Mac">
+
+To use your iPhone as a camera on macOS, enable the Continuity Camera feature:
+- Ensure your Mac is running macOS 13 or later, and your iPhone is on iOS 16 or later.
+- Sign in both devices with the same Apple ID.
+- Connect your devices with a USB cable or turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for a wireless connection.
+
+For more details, visit [Apple support](https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchl77879b8a/mac).
+
+Your iPhone should be detected automatically when running the camera setup script in the next section.
+
+</hfoption>
+<hfoption id="Linux">
+
+If you want to use your phone as a camera on Linux, follow these steps to set up a virtual camera
+
+1. *Install `v4l2loopback-dkms` and `v4l-utils`*. Those packages are required to create virtual camera devices (`v4l2loopback`) and verify their settings with the `v4l2-ctl` utility from `v4l-utils`. Install them using:
+```python
+sudo apt install v4l2loopback-dkms v4l-utils
+```
+2. *Install [DroidCam](https://droidcam.app) on your phone*. This app is available for both iOS and Android.
+3. *Install [OBS Studio](https://obsproject.com)*. This software will help you manage the camera feed. Install it using [Flatpak](https://flatpak.org):
+```python
+flatpak install flathub com.obsproject.Studio
+```
+4. *Install the DroidCam OBS plugin*. This plugin integrates DroidCam with OBS Studio. Install it with:
+```python
+flatpak install flathub com.obsproject.Studio.Plugin.DroidCam
+```
+5. *Start OBS Studio*. Launch with:
+```python
+flatpak run com.obsproject.Studio
+```
+6. *Add your phone as a source*. Follow the instructions [here](https://droidcam.app/obs/usage). Be sure to set the resolution to `640x480`.
+7. *Adjust resolution settings*. In OBS Studio, go to `File > Settings > Video`. Change the `Base(Canvas) Resolution` and the `Output(Scaled) Resolution` to `640x480` by manually typing it in.
+8. *Start virtual camera*. In OBS Studio, follow the instructions [here](https://obsproject.com/kb/virtual-camera-guide).
+9. *Verify the virtual camera setup*. Use `v4l2-ctl` to list the devices:
+```python
+v4l2-ctl --list-devices
+```
+You should see an entry like:
+```
+VirtualCam (platform:v4l2loopback-000):
+/dev/video1
+```
+10. *Check the camera resolution*. Use `v4l2-ctl` to ensure that the virtual camera output resolution is `640x480`. Change `/dev/video1` to the port of your virtual camera from the output of `v4l2-ctl --list-devices`.
+```python
+v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --get-fmt-video
+```
+You should see an entry like:
+```
+>>> Format Video Capture:
+>>>	Width/Height      : 640/480
+>>>	Pixel Format      : 'YUYV' (YUYV 4:2:2)
+```
+
+Troubleshooting: If the resolution is not correct you will have to delete the Virtual Camera port and try again as it cannot be changed.
+
+If everything is set up correctly, you can proceed with the rest of the tutorial.
+
+</hfoption>
+</hfoptions>
+
+## Teleoperate with cameras
+
+We can now teleoperate again while at the same time visualizing the cameras and joint positions with `rerun`.
+
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=so101 \
+  --control.type=teleoperate
+  --control.display_data=true
+```
+
+## Record a dataset
+
+Once you're familiar with teleoperation, you can record your first dataset with SO-101.
+
+We use the Hugging Face hub features for uploading your dataset. If you haven't previously used the Hub, make sure you can login via the cli using a write-access token, this token can be generated from the [Hugging Face settings](https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens).
+
+Add your token to the cli by running this command:
+```bash
+huggingface-cli login --token ${HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN} --add-to-git-credential
+```
+
+Then store your Hugging Face repository name in a variable:
+```bash
+HF_USER=$(huggingface-cli whoami | head -n 1)
+echo $HF_USER
+```
+
+Now you can record a dataset, to record 2 episodes and upload your dataset to the hub execute this command:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=so101 \
+  --control.type=record \
+  --control.fps=30 \
+  --control.single_task="Grasp a lego block and put it in the bin." \
+  --control.repo_id=${HF_USER}/so101_test \
+  --control.tags='["so101","tutorial"]' \
+  --control.warmup_time_s=5 \
+  --control.episode_time_s=30 \
+  --control.reset_time_s=30 \
+  --control.num_episodes=2 \
+  --control.push_to_hub=true
+```
+
+You will see a lot of lines appearing like this one:
+```
+INFO 2024-08-10 15:02:58 ol_robot.py:219 dt:33.34 (30.0hz) dtRlead: 5.06 (197.5hz) dtWfoll: 0.25 (3963.7hz) dtRfoll: 6.22 (160.7hz) dtRlaptop: 32.57 (30.7hz) dtRphone: 33.84 (29.5hz)

+| `dtRphone: 33.84 (29.5 Hz)` | Delta time (ms) for capturing an image from the **phone camera** (async thread). |
+
+
+#### Dataset upload
+Locally your dataset is stored in this folder: `~/.cache/huggingface/lerobot/{repo-id}` (e.g. `data/cadene/so101_test`). At the end of data recording, your dataset will be uploaded on your Hugging Face page (e.g. https://huggingface.co/datasets/cadene/so101_test) that you can obtain by running:
+```bash
+echo https://huggingface.co/datasets/${HF_USER}/so101_test
+```
+Your dataset will be automatically tagged with `LeRobot` for the community to find it easily, and you can also add custom tags (in this case `tutorial` for example).
+
+You can look for other LeRobot datasets on the hub by searching for `LeRobot` [tags](https://huggingface.co/datasets?other=LeRobot).
+
+#### Record function
+
+The `record` function provides a suite of tools for capturing and managing data during robot operation:
+
+##### 1. Frame Capture and Video Encoding
+- Frames from cameras are saved to disk during recording.
+- At the end of each episode, frames are encoded into video files.
+
+##### 2. Data Storage
+- Data is stored using the `LeRobotDataset` format.
+- By default, the dataset is pushed to your Hugging Face page.
+  - To disable uploading, use `--control.push_to_hub=false`.
+
+##### 3. Checkpointing and Resuming
+- Checkpoints are automatically created during recording.
+- If an issue occurs, you can resume by re-running the same command with `--control.resume=true`.
+- To start recording from scratch, **manually delete** the dataset directory.
+
+##### 4. Recording Parameters
+Set the flow of data recording using command-line arguments:
+- `--control.warmup_time_s=10`
+  Number of seconds before starting data collection (default: **10 seconds**).
+  Allows devices to warm up and synchronize.
+- `--control.episode_time_s=60`
+  Duration of each data recording episode (default: **60 seconds**).
+- `--control.reset_time_s=60`
+  Duration for resetting the environment after each episode (default: **60 seconds**).
+- `--control.num_episodes=50`
+  Total number of episodes to record (default: **50**).
+
+##### 5. Keyboard Controls During Recording
+Control the data recording flow using keyboard shortcuts:
+- Press **Right Arrow (`→`)**: Early stop the current episode or reset time and move to the next.
+- Press **Left Arrow (`←`)**: Cancel the current episode and re-record it.
+- Press **Escape (`ESC`)**: Immediately stop the session, encode videos, and upload the dataset.
+
+#### Tips for gathering data
+
+Once you're comfortable with data recording, you can create a larger dataset for training. A good starting task is grasping an object at different locations and placing it in a bin. We suggest recording at least 50 episodes, with 10 episodes per location. Keep the cameras fixed and maintain consistent grasping behavior throughout the recordings. Also make sure the object you are manipulating is visible on the camera's. A good rule of thumb is you should be able to do the task yourself by only looking at the camera images.
+
+In the following sections, you’ll train your neural network. After achieving reliable grasping performance, you can start introducing more variations during data collection, such as additional grasp locations, different grasping techniques, and altering camera positions.
+
+Avoid adding too much variation too quickly, as it may hinder your results.
+
+
+#### Troubleshooting:
+- On Linux, if the left and right arrow keys and escape key don't have any effect during data recording, make sure you've set the `$DISPLAY` environment variable. See [pynput limitations](https://pynput.readthedocs.io/en/latest/limitations.html#linux).
+
+## Visualize a dataset
+
+If you uploaded your dataset to the hub with `--control.push_to_hub=true`, you can [visualize your dataset online](https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/visualize_dataset) by copy pasting your repo id given by:
+```bash
+echo ${HF_USER}/so101_test
+```
+
+If you didn't upload with `--control.push_to_hub=false`, you can visualize it locally with (via a window in the browser `http://127.0.0.1:9090` with the visualization tool):
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/visualize_dataset_html.py \
+  --repo-id ${HF_USER}/so101_test \
+  --local-files-only 1
+```
+
+This will launch a local web server that looks like this:
+<div style="text-align:center;">
+  <img src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/lerobot/visualize_dataset_html.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 leader and follower arms" title="Koch v1.1 leader and follower arms" width="100%"></img>
+</div>
+
+## Replay an episode
+
+A useful feature is the `replay` function, which allows to replay on your robot any episode that you've recorded or episodes from any dataset out there. This function helps you test the repeatability of your robot's actions and assess transferability across robots of the same model.
+
+You can replay the first episode on your robot with:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=so101 \
+  --control.type=replay \
+  --control.fps=30 \
+  --control.repo_id=${HF_USER}/so101_test \
+  --control.episode=0
+```
+
+Your robot should replicate movements similar to those you recorded. For example, check out [this video](https://x.com/RemiCadene/status/1793654950905680090) where we use `replay` on a Aloha robot from [Trossen Robotics](https://www.trossenrobotics.com).
+
+## Train a policy
+
+To train a policy to control your robot, use the [`python lerobot/scripts/train.py`](../lerobot/scripts/train.py) script. A few arguments are required. Here is an example command:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/so101_test \
+  --policy.type=act \
+  --output_dir=outputs/train/act_so101_test \
+  --job_name=act_so101_test \
+  --policy.device=cuda \
+  --wandb.enable=true
+```
+
+Let's explain the command:
+1. We provided the dataset as argument with `--dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/so101_test`.
+2. We provided the policy with `policy.type=act`. This loads configurations from [`configuration_act.py`](../lerobot/common/policies/act/configuration_act.py). Importantly, this policy will automatically adapt to the number of motor states, motor actions and cameras of your robot (e.g. `laptop` and `phone`) which have been saved in your dataset.
+4. We provided `policy.device=cuda` since we are training on a Nvidia GPU, but you could use `policy.device=mps` to train on Apple silicon.
+5. We provided `wandb.enable=true` to use [Weights and Biases](https://docs.wandb.ai/quickstart) for visualizing training plots. This is optional but if you use it, make sure you are logged in by running `wandb login`.
+
+Training should take several hours. You will find checkpoints in `outputs/train/act_so101_test/checkpoints`.
+
+To resume training from a checkpoint, below is an example command to resume from `last` checkpoint of the `act_so101_test` policy:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+  --config_path=outputs/train/act_so101_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model/train_config.json \
+  --resume=true
+```
+
+#### Upload policy checkpoints
+
+Once training is done, upload the latest checkpoint with:
+```bash
+huggingface-cli upload ${HF_USER}/act_so101_test \
+  outputs/train/act_so101_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model
+```
+
+You can also upload intermediate checkpoints with:
+```bash
+CKPT=010000
+huggingface-cli upload ${HF_USER}/act_so101_test${CKPT} \
+  outputs/train/act_so101_test/checkpoints/${CKPT}/pretrained_model
+```
+
+## Evaluate your policy
+
+You can use the `record` function from [`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py`](../lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py) but with a policy checkpoint as input. For instance, run this command to record 10 evaluation episodes:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=so101 \
+  --control.type=record \
+  --control.fps=30 \
+  --control.single_task="Grasp a lego block and put it in the bin." \
+  --control.repo_id=${HF_USER}/eval_act_so101_test \
+  --control.tags='["tutorial"]' \
+  --control.warmup_time_s=5 \
+  --control.episode_time_s=30 \
+  --control.reset_time_s=30 \
+  --control.num_episodes=10 \
+  --control.push_to_hub=true \
+  --control.policy.path=outputs/train/act_so101_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model
+```
+
+As you can see, it's almost the same command as previously used to record your training dataset. Two things changed:
+1. There is an additional `--control.policy.path` argument which indicates the path to your policy checkpoint with  (e.g. `outputs/train/eval_act_so101_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model`). You can also use the model repository if you uploaded a model checkpoint to the hub (e.g. `${HF_USER}/act_so101_test`).
+2. The name of dataset begins by `eval` to reflect that you are running inference (e.g. `${HF_USER}/eval_act_so101_test`).

+
+## Troubleshooting
+If you encounter build errors, you may need to install additional dependencies: `cmake`, `build-essential`, and `ffmpeg libs`.
+To install these for linux run:
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential python-dev pkg-config libavformat-dev libavcodec-dev libavdevice-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libswresample-dev libavfilter-dev pkg-config
+```
+For other systems, see: [Compiling PyAV](https://pyav.org/docs/develop/overview/installation.html#bring-your-own-ffmpeg)
+
+## Sim
+For simulations, 🤗 LeRobot comes with gymnasium environments that can be installed as extras:
+- [aloha](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-aloha)
+- [xarm](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-xarm)
+- [pusht](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-pusht)
+
+For instance, to install 🤗 LeRobot with aloha and pusht, use:
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[aloha, pusht]"

 This script demonstrates the use of `LeRobotDataset` class for handling and processing robotic datasets from Hugging Face.
 It illustrates how to load datasets, manipulate them, and apply transformations suitable for machine learning tasks in PyTorch.
 
 Features included in this script:
-- Loading a dataset and accessing its properties.
-- Filtering data by episode number.
-- Converting tensor data for visualization.
-- Saving video files from dataset frames.
+- Viewing a dataset's metadata and exploring its properties.
+- Loading an existing dataset from the hub or a subset of it.
+- Accessing frames by episode number.
 - Using advanced dataset features like timestamp-based frame selection.
 - Demonstrating compatibility with PyTorch DataLoader for batch processing.
 
 The script ends with examples of how to batch process data using PyTorch's DataLoader.

+In the training script, the main function `train` expects a `TrainPipelineConfig` object:
 ```python
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py
+# train.py
+@parser.wrap()
+def train(cfg: TrainPipelineConfig):
 ```
 
-Hydra is set up to read `default.yaml` (via the `@hydra.main` decorator). If you take a look at the `@hydra.main`'s arguments you will see `config_path="../configs", config_name="default"`. At the top of `default.yaml`, is a `defaults` section which looks likes this:
+You can inspect the `TrainPipelineConfig` defined in [`lerobot/configs/train.py`](../lerobot/configs/train.py) (which is heavily commented and meant to be a reference to understand any option)
 
-```yaml
-defaults:
-  - _self_
-  - env: pusht
-  - policy: diffusion
+When running the script, inputs for the command line are parsed thanks to the `@parser.wrap()` decorator and an instance of this class is automatically generated. Under the hood, this is done with [Draccus](https://github.com/dlwh/draccus) which is a tool dedicated to this purpose. If you're familiar with Hydra, Draccus can similarly load configurations from config files (.json, .yaml) and also override their values through command line inputs. Unlike Hydra, these configurations are pre-defined in the code through dataclasses rather than being defined entirely in config files. This allows for more rigorous serialization/deserialization, typing, and to manipulate configuration as objects directly in the code and not as dictionaries or namespaces (which enables nice features in an IDE such as autocomplete, jump-to-def, etc.)
+
+Let's have a look at a simplified example. Amongst other attributes, the training config has the following attributes:
+```python
+@dataclass
+class TrainPipelineConfig:
+    dataset: DatasetConfig
+    env: envs.EnvConfig | None = None
+    policy: PreTrainedConfig | None = None
+```
+in which `DatasetConfig` for example is defined as such:
+```python
+@dataclass
+class DatasetConfig:
+    repo_id: str
+    episodes: list[int] | None = None
+    video_backend: str = "pyav"
 ```
 
-This logic tells Hydra to incorporate configuration parameters from `env/pusht.yaml` and `policy/diffusion.yaml`. _Note: Be aware of the order as any configuration parameters with the same name will be overidden. Thus, `default.yaml` is overriden by `env/pusht.yaml`  which is overidden by `policy/diffusion.yaml`_.
+This creates a hierarchical relationship where, for example assuming we have a `cfg` instance of `TrainPipelineConfig`, we can access the `repo_id` value with `cfg.dataset.repo_id`.
+From the command line, we can specify this value by using a very similar syntax `--dataset.repo_id=repo/id`.
 
-Then, `default.yaml` also contains common configuration parameters such as `device: cuda` or `use_amp: false` (for enabling fp16 training). Some other parameters are set to `???` which indicates that they are expected to be set in additional yaml files. For instance, `training.offline_steps: ???` in `default.yaml` is set to `200000` in `diffusion.yaml`.
+By default, every field takes its default value specified in the dataclass. If a field doesn't have a default value, it needs to be specified either from the command line or from a config file – which path is also given in the command line (more in this below). In the example above, the `dataset` field doesn't have a default value which means it must be specified.
 
-Thanks to this `defaults` section in `default.yaml`, if you want to train Diffusion Policy with PushT, you really only need to run:
 
-```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py
-```
-
-However, you can be more explicit and launch the exact same Diffusion Policy training on PushT with:
-
-```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py policy=diffusion env=pusht
-```
-
-This way of overriding defaults via the CLI is especially useful when you want to change the policy and/or environment. For instance, you can train ACT on the default Aloha environment with:
-
-```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py policy=act env=aloha
-```
-
-There are two things to note here:
-- Config overrides are passed as `param_name=param_value`.
-- Here we have overridden the defaults section. `policy=act` tells Hydra to use `policy/act.yaml`, and `env=aloha` tells Hydra to use `env/pusht.yaml`.
-
-_As an aside: we've set up all of our configurations so that they reproduce state-of-the-art results from papers in the literature._
-
-## Overriding configuration parameters in the CLI
-
-Now let's say that we want to train on a different task in the Aloha environment. If you look in `env/aloha.yaml` you will see something like:
-
-```yaml
-# lerobot/configs/env/aloha.yaml
-env:
-  task: AlohaInsertion-v0
-```
-
-And if you look in `policy/act.yaml` you will see something like:
-
-```yaml
-# lerobot/configs/policy/act.yaml
-dataset_repo_id: lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human
-```
-
-But our Aloha environment actually supports a cube transfer task as well. To train for this task, you could manually modify the two yaml configuration files respectively.
-
-First, we'd need to switch to using the cube transfer task for the ALOHA environment.
-
-```diff
-# lerobot/configs/env/aloha.yaml
-env:
--  task: AlohaInsertion-v0
-+  task: AlohaTransferCube-v0
-```
-
-Then, we'd also need to switch to using the cube transfer dataset.
-
-```diff
-# lerobot/configs/policy/act.yaml
--dataset_repo_id: lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human
-+dataset_repo_id: lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human
-```
-
-Then, you'd be able to run:
-
-```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py policy=act env=aloha
-```
-
-and you'd be training and evaluating on the cube transfer task.
-
-An alternative approach to editing the yaml configuration files, would be to override the defaults via the command line:
+## Specifying values from the CLI
 
+Let's say that we want to train [Diffusion Policy](../lerobot/common/policies/diffusion) on the [pusht](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/pusht) dataset, using the [gym_pusht](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-pusht) environment for evaluation. The command to do so would look like this:
 ```bash
 python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
-    policy=act \
-    dataset_repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \
-    env=aloha \
-    env.task=AlohaTransferCube-v0
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/pusht \
+    --policy.type=diffusion \
+    --env.type=pusht
 ```
 
-There's something new here. Notice the `.` delimiter used to traverse the configuration hierarchy. _But be aware that the `defaults` section is an exception. As you saw above, we didn't need to write `defaults.policy=act` in the CLI. `policy=act` was enough._
-
-Putting all that knowledge together, here's the command that was used to train https://huggingface.co/lerobot/act_aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human.
+Let's break this down:
+- To specify the dataset, we just need to specify its `repo_id` on the hub which is the only required argument in the `DatasetConfig`. The rest of the fields have default values and in this case we are fine with those so we can just add the option `--dataset.repo_id=lerobot/pusht`.
+- To specify the policy, we can just select diffusion policy using `--policy` appended with `.type`. Here, `.type` is a special argument which allows us to select config classes inheriting from `draccus.ChoiceRegistry` and that have been decorated with the `register_subclass()` method. To have a better explanation of this feature, have a look at this [Draccus demo](https://github.com/dlwh/draccus?tab=readme-ov-file#more-flexible-configuration-with-choice-types). In our code, we use this mechanism mainly to select policies, environments, robots, and some other components like optimizers. The policies available to select are located in [lerobot/common/policies](../lerobot/common/policies)
+- Similarly, we select the environment with `--env.type=pusht`. The different environment configs are available in [`lerobot/common/envs/configs.py`](../lerobot/common/envs/configs.py)
 
+Let's see another example. Let's say you've been training [ACT](../lerobot/common/policies/act) on [lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human) using the [gym-aloha](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-aloha) environment for evaluation with:
 ```bash
 python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
-    hydra.run.dir=outputs/train/act_aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \
-    device=cuda
-    env=aloha \
-    env.task=AlohaTransferCube-v0 \
-    dataset_repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \
-    policy=act \
-    training.eval_freq=10000 \
-    training.log_freq=250 \
-    training.offline_steps=100000 \
-    training.save_model=true \
-    training.save_freq=25000 \
-    eval.n_episodes=50 \
-    eval.batch_size=50 \
-    wandb.enable=false \
+    --policy.type=act \
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human \
+    --env.type=aloha \
+    --output_dir=outputs/train/act_aloha_insertion
 ```
+> Notice we added `--output_dir` to explicitly tell where to write outputs from this run (checkpoints, training state, configs etc.). This is not mandatory and if you don't specify it, a default directory will be created from the current date and time, env.type and policy.type. This will typically look like `outputs/train/2025-01-24/16-10-05_aloha_act`.
 
-There's one new thing here: `hydra.run.dir=outputs/train/act_aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human`, which specifies where to save the training output.
-
-## Using a configuration file not in `lerobot/configs`
-
-Above we discusses the our training script is set up such that Hydra looks for `default.yaml` in `lerobot/configs`. But, if you have a configuration file elsewhere in your filesystem you may use:
-
+We now want to train a different policy for aloha on another task. We'll change the dataset and use [lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human) instead. Of course, we also need to change the task of the environment as well to match this other task.
+Looking at the [`AlohaEnv`](../lerobot/common/envs/configs.py) config, the task is `"AlohaInsertion-v0"` by default, which corresponds to the task we trained on in the command above. The [gym-aloha](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-aloha?tab=readme-ov-file#description) environment also has the `AlohaTransferCube-v0` task which corresponds to this other task we want to train on. Putting this together, we can train this new policy on this different task using:
 ```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py --config-dir PARENT/PATH --config-name FILE_NAME_WITHOUT_EXTENSION
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --policy.type=act \
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \
+    --env.type=aloha \
+    --env.task=AlohaTransferCube-v0 \
+    --output_dir=outputs/train/act_aloha_transfer
 ```
 
-Note: here we use regular syntax for providing CLI arguments to a Python script, not Hydra's `param_name=param_value` syntax.
+## Loading from a config file
 
-As a concrete example, this becomes particularly handy when you have a folder with training outputs, and would like to re-run the training. For example, say you previously ran the training script with one of the earlier commands and have `outputs/train/my_experiment/checkpoints/pretrained_model/config.yaml`. This `config.yaml` file will have the full set of configuration parameters within it. To run the training with the same configuration again, do:
+Now, let's assume that we want to reproduce the run just above. That run has produced a `train_config.json` file in its checkpoints, which serializes the `TrainPipelineConfig` instance it used:
+```json
+{
+    "dataset": {
+        "repo_id": "lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human",
+        "episodes": null,
+        ...
+    },
+    "env": {
+        "type": "aloha",
+        "task": "AlohaTransferCube-v0",
+        "fps": 50,
+        ...
+    },
+    "policy": {
+        "type": "act",
+        "n_obs_steps": 1,
+        ...
+    },
+    ...
+}
+```
 
+We can then simply load the config values from this file using:
 ```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py --config-dir outputs/train/my_experiment/checkpoints/pretrained_model --config-name config
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --config_path=outputs/train/act_aloha_transfer/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model/ \
+    --output_dir=outputs/train/act_aloha_transfer_2
+```
+`--config_path` is also a special argument which allows to initialize the config from a local config file. It can point to a directory that contains `train_config.json` or to the config file itself directly.
+
+Similarly to Hydra, we can still override some parameters in the CLI if we want to, e.g.:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --config_path=outputs/train/act_aloha_transfer/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model/ \
+    --output_dir=outputs/train/act_aloha_transfer_2
+    --policy.n_action_steps=80
+```
+> Note: While `--output_dir` is not required in general, in this case we need to specify it since it will otherwise take the value from the `train_config.json` (which is `outputs/train/act_aloha_transfer`). In order to prevent accidental deletion of previous run checkpoints, we raise an error if you're trying to write in an existing directory. This is not the case when resuming a run, which is what you'll learn next.
+
+`--config_path` can also accept the repo_id of a repo on the hub that contains a `train_config.json` file, e.g. running:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py --config_path=lerobot/diffusion_pusht
+```
+will start a training run with the same configuration used for training [lerobot/diffusion_pusht](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/diffusion_pusht)
+
+
+## Resume training
+
+Being able to resume a training run is important in case it crashed or aborted for any reason. We'll demonstrate how to do that here.
+
+Let's reuse the command from the previous run and add a few more options:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --policy.type=act \
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \
+    --env.type=aloha \
+    --env.task=AlohaTransferCube-v0 \
+    --log_freq=25 \
+    --save_freq=100 \
+    --output_dir=outputs/train/run_resumption
 ```
 
-Note that you may still use the regular syntax for config parameter overrides (eg: by adding `training.offline_steps=200000`).
+Here we've taken care to set up the log frequency and checkpointing frequency to low numbers so we can showcase resumption. You should be able to see some logging and have a first checkpoint within 1 minute (depending on hardware). Wait for the first checkpoint to happen, you should see a line that looks like this in your terminal:
+```
+INFO 2025-01-24 16:10:56 ts/train.py:263 Checkpoint policy after step 100
+```
+Now let's simulate a crash by killing the process (hit `ctrl`+`c`). We can then simply resume this run from the last checkpoint available with:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --config_path=outputs/train/run_resumption/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model/ \
+    --resume=true
+```
+You should see from the logging that your training picks up from where it left off.
+
+Another reason for which you might want to resume a run is simply to extend training and add more training steps. The number of training steps is set by the option `--steps`, which is 100 000 by default.
+You could double the number of steps of the previous run with:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --config_path=outputs/train/run_resumption/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model/ \
+    --resume=true \
+    --steps=200000
+```
+
+## Outputs of a run
+In the output directory, there will be a folder called `checkpoints` with the following structure:
+```bash
+outputs/train/run_resumption/checkpoints
+├── 000100  # checkpoint_dir for training step 100
+│   ├── pretrained_model/
+│   │   ├── config.json  # policy config
+│   │   ├── model.safetensors  # policy weights
+│   │   └── train_config.json  # train config
+│   └── training_state/
+│       ├── optimizer_param_groups.json  #  optimizer param groups
+│       ├── optimizer_state.safetensors  # optimizer state
+│       ├── rng_state.safetensors  # rng states
+│       ├── scheduler_state.json  # scheduler state
+│       └── training_step.json  # training step
+├── 000200
+└── last -> 000200  # symlink to the last available checkpoint
+```
+
+## Fine-tuning a pre-trained policy
+
+In addition to the features currently in Draccus, we've added a special `.path` argument for the policy, which allows to load a policy as you would with `PreTrainedPolicy.from_pretrained()`. In that case, `path` can be a local directory that contains a checkpoint or a repo_id pointing to a pretrained policy on the hub.
+
+For example, we could fine-tune a [policy pre-trained on the aloha transfer task](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/act_aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human) on the aloha insertion task. We can achieve this with:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --policy.path=lerobot/act_aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human \
+    --env.type=aloha \
+    --env.task=AlohaInsertion-v0
+```
+
+When doing so, keep in mind that the features of the fine-tuning dataset would have to match the input/output features of the pretrained policy.
+
+## Typical logs and metrics
+
+When you start the training process, you will first see your full configuration being printed in the terminal. You can check it to make sure that you configured your run correctly. The final configuration will also be saved with the checkpoint.
+
+After that, you will see training log like this one:
+```
+INFO 2024-08-14 13:35:12 ts/train.py:192 step:0 smpl:64 ep:1 epch:0.00 loss:1.112 grdn:15.387 lr:2.0e-07 updt_s:1.738 data_s:4.774
+```
+or evaluation log:
+```
+INFO 2024-08-14 13:38:45 ts/train.py:226 step:100 smpl:6K ep:52 epch:0.25 ∑rwrd:20.693 success:0.0% eval_s:120.266
+```
+
+These logs will also be saved in wandb if `wandb.enable` is set to `true`. Here are the meaning of some abbreviations:
+- `smpl`: number of samples seen during training.
+- `ep`: number of episodes seen during training. An episode contains multiple samples in a complete manipulation task.
+- `epch`: number of time all unique samples are seen (epoch).
+- `grdn`: gradient norm.
+- `∑rwrd`: compute the sum of rewards in every evaluation episode and then take an average of them.
+- `success`: average success rate of eval episodes. Reward and success are usually different except for the sparsing reward setting, where reward=1 only when the task is completed successfully.
+- `eval_s`: time to evaluate the policy in the environment, in second.
+- `updt_s`: time to update the network parameters, in second.
+- `data_s`: time to load a batch of data, in second.
+
+Some metrics are useful for initial performance profiling. For example, if you find the current GPU utilization is low via the `nvidia-smi` command and `data_s` sometimes is too high, you may need to modify batch size or number of dataloading workers to accelerate dataloading. We also recommend [pytorch profiler](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot?tab=readme-ov-file#improve-your-code-with-profiling) for detailed performance probing.
+
+## In short
+
+We'll summarize here the main use cases to remember from this tutorial.
+
+#### Train a policy from scratch – CLI
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --policy.type=act \  # <- select 'act' policy
+    --env.type=pusht \  # <- select 'pusht' environment
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/pusht  # <- train on this dataset
+```
+
+#### Train a policy from scratch - config file + CLI
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --config_path=path/to/pretrained_model \  # <- can also be a repo_id
+    --policy.n_action_steps=80  # <- you may still override values
+```
+
+#### Resume/continue a training run
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --config_path=checkpoint/pretrained_model/ \
+    --resume=true \
+    --steps=200000  # <- you can change some training parameters
+```
+
+#### Fine-tuning
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+    --policy.path=lerobot/act_aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human \  # <- can also be a local path to a checkpoint
+    --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_insertion_human \
+    --env.type=aloha \
+    --env.task=AlohaInsertion-v0
+```

-So far we've seen how to train Diffusion Policy for PushT and ACT for ALOHA. Now, what if we want to train ACT for PushT? Well, there are aspects of the ACT configuration that are specific to the ALOHA environments, and these happen to be incompatible with PushT. Therefore, trying to run the following will almost certainly raise an exception of sorts (eg: feature dimension mismatch):

+# Getting Started with Real-World Robots
+
+This tutorial will guide you through the process of setting up and training a neural network to autonomously control a real robot.
+
+**What You'll Learn:**
+1. How to order and assemble your robot.
+2. How to connect, configure, and calibrate your robot.
+3. How to record and visualize your dataset.
+4. How to train a policy using your data and prepare it for evaluation.
+5. How to evaluate your policy and visualize the results.
+
+By following these steps, you'll be able to replicate tasks like picking up a Lego block and placing it in a bin with a high success rate, as demonstrated in [this video](https://x.com/RemiCadene/status/1814680760592572934).
+
+This tutorial is specifically made for the affordable [Koch v1.1](https://github.com/jess-moss/koch-v1-1) robot, but it contains additional information to be easily adapted to various types of robots like [Aloha bimanual robot](https://aloha-2.github.io) by changing some configurations. The Koch v1.1 consists of a leader arm and a follower arm, each with 6 motors. It can work with one or several cameras to record the scene, which serve as visual sensors for the robot.
+
+During the data collection phase, you will control the follower arm by moving the leader arm. This process is known as "teleoperation." This technique is used to collect robot trajectories. Afterward, you'll train a neural network to imitate these trajectories and deploy the network to enable your robot to operate autonomously.
+
+If you encounter any issues at any step of the tutorial, feel free to seek help on [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/s3KuuzsPFb) or don't hesitate to iterate with us on the tutorial by creating issues or pull requests. Thanks!
+
+## 1. Order and Assemble your Koch v1.1
+
+Follow the sourcing and assembling instructions provided on the [Koch v1.1 Github page](https://github.com/jess-moss/koch-v1-1). This will guide you through setting up both the follower and leader arms, as shown in the image below.
+
+<div style="text-align:center;">
+  <img src="../media/tutorial/koch_v1_1_leader_follower.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 leader and follower arms" title="Koch v1.1 leader and follower arms" width="50%">
+</div>
+
+For a visual walkthrough of the assembly process, you can refer to [this video tutorial](https://youtu.be/8nQIg9BwwTk).
+
+## 2. Configure motors, calibrate arms, teleoperate your Koch v1.1
+
+First, install the additional dependencies required for robots built with dynamixel motors like Koch v1.1 by running one of the following commands (make sure gcc is installed).
+
+Using `pip`:
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[dynamixel]"
+```
+
+Using `poetry`:
+```bash
+poetry sync --extras "dynamixel"
+```
+
+Using `uv`:
+```bash
+uv sync --extra "dynamixel"
+```
+
+You are now ready to plug the 5V power supply to the motor bus of the leader arm (the smaller one) since all its motors only require 5V.
+
+Then plug the 12V power supply to the motor bus of the follower arm. It has two motors that need 12V, and the rest will be powered with 5V through the voltage convertor.
+
+Finally, connect both arms to your computer via USB. Note that the USB doesn't provide any power, and both arms need to be plugged in with their associated power supply to be detected by your computer.
+
+Now you are ready to configure your motors for the first time, as detailed in the sections below. In the upcoming sections, you'll learn about our classes and functions by running some python code in an interactive session, or by copy-pasting it in a python file.
+
+If you have already configured your motors the first time, you can streamline the process by directly running the teleoperate script (which is detailed further in the tutorial):
+
+> **NOTE:** To visualize the data, enable `--control.display_data=true`. This streams the data using `rerun`.
+
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=koch \
+  --control.type=teleoperate
+```
+
+It will automatically:
+1. Identify any missing calibrations and initiate the calibration procedure.
+2. Connect the robot and start teleoperation.
+
+### a. Control your motors with DynamixelMotorsBus
+
+You can use the [`DynamixelMotorsBus`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/motors/dynamixel.py) to communicate with the motors connected as a chain to the corresponding USB bus. This class leverages the Python [Dynamixel SDK](https://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/software/dynamixel/dynamixel_sdk/sample_code/python_read_write_protocol_2_0/#python-read-write-protocol-20) to facilitate reading from and writing to the motors.
+
+**First Configuration of your motors**
+
+You will need to unplug each motor in turn and run a command the identify the motor. The motor will save its own identification, so you only need to do this once. Start by unplugging all of the motors.
+
+Do the Leader arm first, as all of its motors are of the same type. Plug in your first motor on your leader arm and run this script to set its ID to 1.
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/configure_motor.py \
+  --port /dev/tty.usbmodem58760432961 \
+  --brand dynamixel \
+  --model xl330-m288 \
+  --baudrate 1000000 \
+  --id 1
+```
+
+Then unplug your first motor and plug the second motor and set its ID to 2.
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/configure_motor.py \
+  --port /dev/tty.usbmodem58760432961 \
+  --brand dynamixel \
+  --model xl330-m288 \
+  --baudrate 1000000 \
+  --id 2
+```
+
+Redo the process for all your motors until ID 6.
+
+The process for the follower arm is almost the same, but the follower arm has two types of motors. For the first two motors, make sure you set the model to `xl430-w250`. _Important: configuring follower motors requires plugging and unplugging power. Make sure you use the 5V power for the XL330s and the 12V power for the XL430s!_
+
+After all of your motors are configured properly, you're ready to plug them all together in a daisy-chain as shown in the original video.
+
+**Instantiate the DynamixelMotorsBus**
+
+To begin, create two instances of the  [`DynamixelMotorsBus`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/motors/dynamixel.py), one for each arm, using their corresponding USB ports (e.g. `DynamixelMotorsBus(port="/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751"`).
+
+To find the correct ports for each arm, run the utility script twice:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/find_motors_bus_port.py
+```
+
+Example output when identifying the leader arm's port (e.g., `/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751` on Mac, or possibly `/dev/ttyACM0` on Linux):
+```
+Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
+['/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081', '/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751']
+Remove the usb cable from your DynamixelMotorsBus and press Enter when done.
+
+[...Disconnect leader arm and press Enter...]
+
+The port of this DynamixelMotorsBus is /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751
+Reconnect the usb cable.
+```
+
+Example output when identifying the follower arm's port (e.g., `/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081`, or possibly `/dev/ttyACM1` on Linux):
+```
+Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
+['/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081', '/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751']
+Remove the usb cable from your DynamixelMotorsBus and press Enter when done.
+
+[...Disconnect follower arm and press Enter...]
+
+The port of this DynamixelMotorsBus is /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081
+Reconnect the usb cable.
+```
+
+Troubleshooting: On Linux, you might need to give access to the USB ports by running this command with your ports:
+```bash
+sudo chmod 666 /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081
+sudo chmod 666 /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751
+```
+
+*Listing and Configuring Motors*
+
+Next, you'll need to list the motors for each arm, including their name, index, and model. Initially, each motor is assigned the factory default index `1`. Since each motor requires a unique index to function correctly when connected in a chain on a common bus, you'll need to assign different indices. It's recommended to use an ascending index order, starting from `1` (e.g., `1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6`). These indices will be saved in the persistent memory of each motor during the first connection.
+
+To assign indices to the motors, run this code in an interactive Python session. Replace the `port` values with the ones you identified earlier:
+```python
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.motors.configs import DynamixelMotorsBusConfig
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.motors.dynamixel import DynamixelMotorsBus
+
+leader_config = DynamixelMotorsBusConfig(
+    port="/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751",
+    motors={
+        # name: (index, model)
+        "shoulder_pan": (1, "xl330-m077"),
+        "shoulder_lift": (2, "xl330-m077"),
+        "elbow_flex": (3, "xl330-m077"),
+        "wrist_flex": (4, "xl330-m077"),
+        "wrist_roll": (5, "xl330-m077"),
+        "gripper": (6, "xl330-m077"),
+    },
+)
+
+follower_config = DynamixelMotorsBusConfig(
+    port="/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081",
+    motors={
+        # name: (index, model)
+        "shoulder_pan": (1, "xl430-w250"),
+        "shoulder_lift": (2, "xl430-w250"),
+        "elbow_flex": (3, "xl330-m288"),
+        "wrist_flex": (4, "xl330-m288"),
+        "wrist_roll": (5, "xl330-m288"),
+        "gripper": (6, "xl330-m288"),
+    },
+)
+
+leader_arm = DynamixelMotorsBus(leader_config)
+follower_arm = DynamixelMotorsBus(follower_config)
+```
+
+IMPORTANTLY: Now that you have your ports, update [`KochRobotConfig`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/robots/configs.py). You will find something like:
+```python
+@RobotConfig.register_subclass("koch")
+@dataclass
+class KochRobotConfig(ManipulatorRobotConfig):
+    calibration_dir: str = ".cache/calibration/koch"
+    # `max_relative_target` limits the magnitude of the relative positional target vector for safety purposes.
+    # Set this to a positive scalar to have the same value for all motors, or a list that is the same length as
+    # the number of motors in your follower arms.
+    max_relative_target: int | None = None
+
+    leader_arms: dict[str, MotorsBusConfig] = field(
+        default_factory=lambda: {
+            "main": DynamixelMotorsBusConfig(
+                port="/dev/tty.usbmodem585A0085511", <-- UPDATE HERE
+                motors={
+                    # name: (index, model)
+                    "shoulder_pan": [1, "xl330-m077"],
+                    "shoulder_lift": [2, "xl330-m077"],
+                    "elbow_flex": [3, "xl330-m077"],
+                    "wrist_flex": [4, "xl330-m077"],
+                    "wrist_roll": [5, "xl330-m077"],
+                    "gripper": [6, "xl330-m077"],
+                },
+            ),
+        }
+    )
+
+    follower_arms: dict[str, MotorsBusConfig] = field(
+        default_factory=lambda: {
+            "main": DynamixelMotorsBusConfig(
+                port="/dev/tty.usbmodem585A0076891", <-- UPDATE HERE
+                motors={
+                    # name: (index, model)
+                    "shoulder_pan": [1, "xl430-w250"],
+                    "shoulder_lift": [2, "xl430-w250"],
+                    "elbow_flex": [3, "xl330-m288"],
+                    "wrist_flex": [4, "xl330-m288"],
+                    "wrist_roll": [5, "xl330-m288"],
+                    "gripper": [6, "xl330-m288"],
+                },
+            ),
+        }
+    )
+```
+
+**Connect and Configure your Motors**
+
+Before you can start using your motors, you'll need to configure them to ensure proper communication. When you first connect the motors, the [`DynamixelMotorsBus`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/motors/dynamixel.py) automatically detects any mismatch between the current motor indices (factory set to `1`) and the specified indices (e.g., `1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6`). This triggers a configuration procedure that requires you to unplug the power cord and motors, then reconnect each motor sequentially, starting from the one closest to the bus.
+
+For a visual guide, refer to the [video tutorial of the configuration procedure](https://youtu.be/U78QQ9wCdpY).
+
+To connect and configure the leader arm, run the following code in the same Python interactive session as earlier in the tutorial:
+```python
+leader_arm.connect()
+```
+
+When you connect the leader arm for the first time, you might see an output similar to this:
+```
+Read failed due to communication error on port /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081 for group_key ID_shoulder_pan_shoulder_lift_elbow_flex_wrist_flex_wrist_roll_gripper: [TxRxResult] There is no status packet!
+
+/!\ A configuration issue has been detected with your motors:
+If this is the first time you are using these motors, press enter to configure your motors... but before verify that all the cables are connected the proper way. If you find an issue, before making a modification, kill the python process, unplug the power cord to not damage the motors, rewire correctly, then plug the power again and relaunch the script.
+
+Motor indices detected: {9600: [1]}
+
+1. Unplug the power cord
+2. Plug/unplug minimal number of cables to only have the first 1 motor(s) (['shoulder_pan']) connected.
+3. Re-plug the power cord
+Press Enter to continue...
+
+*Follow the procedure*
+
+Setting expected motor indices: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
+```
+
+Once the leader arm is configured, repeat the process for the follower arm by running:
+```python
+follower_arm.connect()
+```
+
+Congratulations! Both arms are now properly configured and connected. You won't need to go through the configuration procedure again in the future.
+
+**Troubleshooting**:
+
+If the configuration process fails, you may need to do the configuration process via the Dynamixel Wizard.
+
+Known failure modes:
+- Calling `arm.connect()` raises `OSError: No motor found, but one new motor expected. Verify power cord is plugged in and retry` on Ubuntu 22.
+
+Steps:
+1. Visit https://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/software/dynamixel/dynamixel_wizard2/#connect-dynamixel.
+2. Follow the software installation instructions in section 3 of the web page.
+3. Launch the software.
+4. Configure the device scanning options in the menu under `Tools` > `Options` > `Scan`. Check only Protocol 2.0, select only the USB port identifier of interest, select all baudrates, set the ID range to `[0, 10]`. _While this step was not strictly necessary, it greatly speeds up scanning_.
+5. For each motor in turn:
+    - Disconnect the power to the driver board.
+    - Connect **only** the motor of interest to the driver board, making sure to disconnect it from any other motors.
+    - Reconnect the power to the driver board.
+    - From the software menu select `Device` > `Scan` and let the scan run. A device should appear.
+    - If the device has an asterisk (*) near it, it means the firmware is indeed outdated. From the software menu, select `Tools` > `Firmware Update`. Follow the prompts.
+    - The main panel should have table with various parameters of the device (refer to the web page, section 5). Select the row with `ID`, and then set the desired ID on the bottom right panel by selecting and clicking `Save`.
+    - Just like you did with the ID, also set the `Baud Rate` to 1 Mbps.
+6. Check everything has been done right:
+   - Rewire the arms in their final configuration and power both of them.
+   - Scan for devices. All 12 motors should appear.
+   - Select the motors one by one and move the arm. Check that the graphical indicator near the top right shows the movement.
+
+** There is a common issue with the Dynamixel XL430-W250 motors where the motors become undiscoverable after upgrading their firmware from Mac and Windows Dynamixel Wizard2 applications.  When this occurs, it is required to do a firmware recovery (Select `DYNAMIXEL Firmware Recovery` and follow the prompts).   There are two known workarounds to conduct this firmware reset:
+  1) Install the Dynamixel Wizard on a linux machine and complete the firmware recovery
+  2) Use the Dynamixel U2D2 in order to perform the reset with Windows or Mac.  This U2D2 can be purchased [here](https://www.robotis.us/u2d2/).
+  For either solution, open DYNAMIXEL Wizard 2.0 and select the appropriate port. You will likely be unable to see the motor in the GUI at this time. Select `Firmware Recovery`, carefully choose the correct model, and wait for the process to complete. Finally, re-scan to confirm the firmware recovery was successful.
+
+**Read and Write with DynamixelMotorsBus**
+
+To get familiar with how `DynamixelMotorsBus` communicates with the motors, you can start by reading data from them. Copy past this code in the same interactive python session:
+```python
+leader_pos = leader_arm.read("Present_Position")
+follower_pos = follower_arm.read("Present_Position")
+print(leader_pos)
+print(follower_pos)
+```
+
+Expected output might look like:
+```
+array([2054,  523, 3071, 1831, 3049, 2441], dtype=int32)
+array([2003, 1601,   56, 2152, 3101, 2283], dtype=int32)
+```
+
+Try moving the arms to various positions and observe how the values change.
+
+Now let's try to enable torque in the follower arm by copy pasting this code:
+```python
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.motors.dynamixel import TorqueMode
+
+follower_arm.write("Torque_Enable", TorqueMode.ENABLED.value)
+```
+
+With torque enabled, the follower arm will be locked in its current position. Do not attempt to manually move the arm while torque is enabled, as this could damage the motors.
+
+Now, to get more familiar with reading and writing, let's move the arm programmatically copy pasting the following example code:
+```python
+# Get the current position
+position = follower_arm.read("Present_Position")
+
+# Update first motor (shoulder_pan) position by +10 steps
+position[0] += 10
+follower_arm.write("Goal_Position", position)
+
+# Update all motors position by -30 steps
+position -= 30
+follower_arm.write("Goal_Position", position)
+
+# Update gripper by +30 steps
+position[-1] += 30
+follower_arm.write("Goal_Position", position[-1], "gripper")
+```
+
+When you're done playing, you can try to disable the torque, but make sure you hold your robot so that it doesn't fall:
+```python
+follower_arm.write("Torque_Enable", TorqueMode.DISABLED.value)
+```
+
+Finally, disconnect the arms:
+```python
+leader_arm.disconnect()
+follower_arm.disconnect()
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can unplug the power cord, which will automatically disable torque and disconnect the motors.
+
+*/!\ Warning*: These motors tend to overheat, especially under torque or if left plugged in for too long. Unplug after use.
+
+### b. Teleoperate your Koch v1.1 with ManipulatorRobot
+
+**Instantiate the ManipulatorRobot**
+
+Before you can teleoperate your robot, you need to instantiate the  [`ManipulatorRobot`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/robots/manipulator.py) using the previously defined `leader_config` and `follower_config`.
+
+For the Koch v1.1 robot, we only have one leader, so we refer to it as `"main"` and define it as `leader_arms={"main": leader_config}`. We do the same for the follower arm. For other robots (like the Aloha), which may have two pairs of leader and follower arms, you would define them like this: `leader_arms={"left": left_leader_config, "right": right_leader_config},`. Same thing for the follower arms.
+
+
+Run the following code to instantiate your manipulator robot:
+```python
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.robots.configs import KochRobotConfig
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.robots.manipulator import ManipulatorRobot
+
+robot_config = KochRobotConfig(
+    leader_arms={"main": leader_config},
+    follower_arms={"main": follower_config},
+    cameras={},  # We don't use any camera for now
+)
+robot = ManipulatorRobot(robot_config)
+```
+
+The `KochRobotConfig` is used to set the associated settings and calibration process. For instance, we activate the torque of the gripper of the leader Koch v1.1 arm and position it at a 40 degree angle to use it as a trigger.
+
+For the [Aloha bimanual robot](https://aloha-2.github.io), we would use `AlohaRobotConfig` to set different settings such as a secondary ID for shadow joints (shoulder, elbow). Specific to Aloha, LeRobot comes with default calibration files stored in `.cache/calibration/aloha_default`. Assuming the motors have been properly assembled, no manual calibration step is expected for Aloha.
+
+**Calibrate and Connect the ManipulatorRobot**
+
+Next, you'll need to calibrate your Koch robot to ensure that the leader and follower arms have the same position values when they are in the same physical position. This calibration is essential because it allows a neural network trained on one Koch robot to work on another.
+
+When you connect your robot for the first time, the [`ManipulatorRobot`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/robots/manipulator.py) will detect if the calibration file is missing and trigger the calibration procedure. During this process, you will be guided to move each arm to three different positions.
+
+Here are the positions you'll move the follower arm to:
+
+| 1. Zero position                                                                                                                                                  | 2. Rotated position                                                                                                                                                        | 3. Rest position                                                                                                                                                  |
+| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| <img src="../media/koch/follower_zero.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 follower arm zero position" title="Koch v1.1 follower arm zero position" style="width:100%;"> | <img src="../media/koch/follower_rotated.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 follower arm rotated position" title="Koch v1.1 follower arm rotated position" style="width:100%;"> | <img src="../media/koch/follower_rest.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 follower arm rest position" title="Koch v1.1 follower arm rest position" style="width:100%;"> |
+
+And here are the corresponding positions for the leader arm:
+
+| 1. Zero position                                                                                                                                            | 2. Rotated position                                                                                                                                                  | 3. Rest position                                                                                                                                            |
+| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| <img src="../media/koch/leader_zero.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 leader arm zero position" title="Koch v1.1 leader arm zero position" style="width:100%;"> | <img src="../media/koch/leader_rotated.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 leader arm rotated position" title="Koch v1.1 leader arm rotated position" style="width:100%;"> | <img src="../media/koch/leader_rest.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 leader arm rest position" title="Koch v1.1 leader arm rest position" style="width:100%;"> |
+
+You can watch a [video tutorial of the calibration procedure](https://youtu.be/8drnU9uRY24) for more details.
+
+During calibration, we count the number of full 360-degree rotations your motors have made since they were first used. That's why we ask you to move to this arbitrary "zero" position. We don't actually "set" the zero position, so you don't need to be accurate. After calculating these "offsets" to shift the motor values around 0, we need to assess the rotation direction of each motor, which might differ. That's why we ask you to rotate all motors to roughly 90 degrees, to measure if the values changed negatively or positively.
+
+Finally, the rest position ensures that the follower and leader arms are roughly aligned after calibration, preventing sudden movements that could damage the motors when starting teleoperation.
+
+Importantly, once calibrated, all Koch robots will move to the same positions (e.g. zero and rotated position) when commanded.
+
+Run the following code to calibrate and connect your robot:
+```python
+robot.connect()
+```
+
+The output will look like this:
+```
+Connecting main follower arm
+Connecting main leader arm
+
+Missing calibration file '.cache/calibration/koch/main_follower.json'
+Running calibration of koch main follower...
+Move arm to zero position
+[...]
+Move arm to rotated position
+[...]
+Move arm to rest position
+[...]
+Calibration is done! Saving calibration file '.cache/calibration/koch/main_follower.json'
+
+Missing calibration file '.cache/calibration/koch/main_leader.json'
+Running calibration of koch main leader...
+Move arm to zero position
+[...]
+Move arm to rotated position
+[...]
+Move arm to rest position
+[...]
+Calibration is done! Saving calibration file '.cache/calibration/koch/main_leader.json'
+```
+
+*Verifying Calibration*
+
+Once calibration is complete, you can check the positions of the leader and follower arms to ensure they match. If the calibration was successful, the positions should be very similar.
+
+Run this code to get the positions in degrees:
+```python
+leader_pos = robot.leader_arms["main"].read("Present_Position")
+follower_pos = robot.follower_arms["main"].read("Present_Position")
+
+print(leader_pos)
+print(follower_pos)
+```
+
+Example output:
+```
+array([-0.43945312, 133.94531, 179.82422, -18.984375, -1.9335938, 34.541016], dtype=float32)
+array([-0.58723712, 131.72314, 174.98743, -16.872612, 0.786213, 35.271973], dtype=float32)
+```
+
+These values are in degrees, which makes them easier to interpret and debug. The zero position used during calibration should roughly correspond to 0 degrees for each motor, and the rotated position should roughly correspond to 90 degrees for each motor.
+
+**Teleoperate your Koch v1.1**
+
+You can easily teleoperate your robot by reading the positions from the leader arm and sending them as goal positions to the follower arm.
+
+To teleoperate your robot for 30 seconds at a frequency of approximately 200Hz, run the following code:
+```python
+import tqdm
+seconds = 30
+frequency = 200
+for _ in tqdm.tqdm(range(seconds*frequency)):
+    leader_pos = robot.leader_arms["main"].read("Present_Position")
+    robot.follower_arms["main"].write("Goal_Position", leader_pos)
+```
+
+*Using `teleop_step` for Teleoperation*
+
+Alternatively, you can teleoperate the robot using the `teleop_step` method from [`ManipulatorRobot`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/robots/manipulator.py).
+
+Run this code to teleoperate:
+```python
+for _ in tqdm.tqdm(range(seconds*frequency)):
+    robot.teleop_step()
+```
+
+*Recording data during Teleoperation*
+
+Teleoperation is particularly useful for recording data. You can use the `teleop_step(record_data=True)` to returns both the follower arm's position as `"observation.state"` and the leader arm's position as `"action"`. This function also converts the numpy arrays into PyTorch tensors. If you're working with a robot that has two leader and two follower arms (like the Aloha), the positions are concatenated.
+
+Run the following code to see how slowly moving the leader arm affects the observation and action:
+```python
+leader_pos = robot.leader_arms["main"].read("Present_Position")
+follower_pos = robot.follower_arms["main"].read("Present_Position")
+observation, action = robot.teleop_step(record_data=True)
+
+print(follower_pos)
+print(observation)
+print(leader_pos)
+print(action)
+```
+
+Expected output:
+```
+array([7.8223, 131.1328, 165.5859, -23.4668, -0.9668, 32.4316], dtype=float32)
+{'observation.state': tensor([7.8223, 131.1328, 165.5859, -23.4668, -0.9668, 32.4316])}
+array([3.4277, 134.1211, 179.8242, -18.5449, -1.5820, 34.7168], dtype=float32)
+{'action': tensor([3.4277, 134.1211, 179.8242, -18.5449, -1.5820, 34.7168])}
+```
+
+*Asynchronous Frame Recording*
+
+Additionally, `teleop_step` can asynchronously record frames from multiple cameras and include them in the observation dictionary as `"observation.images.CAMERA_NAME"`. This feature will be covered in more detail in the next section.
+
+*Disconnecting the Robot*
+
+When you're finished, make sure to disconnect your robot by running:
+```python
+robot.disconnect()
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can unplug the power cord, which will also disable torque.
+
+*/!\ Warning*: These motors tend to overheat, especially under torque or if left plugged in for too long. Unplug after use.
+
+### c. Add your cameras with OpenCVCamera
+
+**(Optional) Use your phone as camera on Linux**
+
+If you want to use your phone as a camera on Linux, follow these steps to set up a virtual camera
+
+1. *Install `v4l2loopback-dkms` and `v4l-utils`*. Those packages are required to create virtual camera devices (`v4l2loopback`) and verify their settings with the `v4l2-ctl` utility from `v4l-utils`. Install them using:
+```python
+sudo apt install v4l2loopback-dkms v4l-utils
+```
+2. *Install [DroidCam](https://droidcam.app) on your phone*. This app is available for both iOS and Android.
+3. *Install [OBS Studio](https://obsproject.com)*. This software will help you manage the camera feed. Install it using [Flatpak](https://flatpak.org):
+```python
+flatpak install flathub com.obsproject.Studio
+```
+4. *Install the DroidCam OBS plugin*. This plugin integrates DroidCam with OBS Studio. Install it with:
+```python
+flatpak install flathub com.obsproject.Studio.Plugin.DroidCam
+```
+5. *Start OBS Studio*. Launch with:
+```python
+flatpak run com.obsproject.Studio
+```
+6. *Add your phone as a source*. Follow the instructions [here](https://droidcam.app/obs/usage). Be sure to set the resolution to `640x480`.
+7. *Adjust resolution settings*. In OBS Studio, go to `File > Settings > Video`. Change the `Base(Canvas) Resolution` and the `Output(Scaled) Resolution` to `640x480` by manually typing it in.
+8. *Start virtual camera*. In OBS Studio, follow the instructions [here](https://obsproject.com/kb/virtual-camera-guide).
+9. *Verify the virtual camera setup*. Use `v4l2-ctl` to list the devices:
+```python
+v4l2-ctl --list-devices
+```
+You should see an entry like:
+```
+VirtualCam (platform:v4l2loopback-000):
+/dev/video1
+```
+10. *Check the camera resolution*. Use `v4l2-ctl` to ensure that the virtual camera output resolution is `640x480`. Change `/dev/video1` to the port of your virtual camera from the output of `v4l2-ctl --list-devices`.
+```python
+v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --get-fmt-video
+```
+You should see an entry like:
+```
+>>> Format Video Capture:
+>>>	Width/Height      : 640/480
+>>>	Pixel Format      : 'YUYV' (YUYV 4:2:2)
+```
+
+Troubleshooting: If the resolution is not correct you will have to delete the Virtual Camera port and try again as it cannot be changed.
+
+If everything is set up correctly, you can proceed with the rest of the tutorial.
+
+**(Optional) Use your iPhone as a camera on MacOS**
+
+To use your iPhone as a camera on macOS, enable the Continuity Camera feature:
+- Ensure your Mac is running macOS 13 or later, and your iPhone is on iOS 16 or later.
+- Sign in both devices with the same Apple ID.
+- Connect your devices with a USB cable or turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for a wireless connection.
+
+For more details, visit [Apple support](https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchl77879b8a/mac).
+
+Your iPhone should be detected automatically when running the camera setup script in the next section.
+
+**Instantiate an OpenCVCamera**
+
+The [`OpenCVCamera`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/cameras/opencv.py) class allows you to efficiently record frames from most cameras using the [`opencv2`](https://docs.opencv.org) library.  For more details on compatibility, see [Video I/O with OpenCV Overview](https://docs.opencv.org/4.x/d0/da7/videoio_overview.html).
+
+To instantiate an [`OpenCVCamera`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/cameras/opencv.py), you need a camera index (e.g. `OpenCVCamera(camera_index=0)`). When you only have one camera like a webcam of a laptop, the camera index is usually `0` but it might differ, and the camera index might change if you reboot your computer or re-plug your camera. This behavior depends on your operating system.
+
+To find the camera indices, run the following utility script, which will save a few frames from each detected camera:
+```bash
+python lerobot/common/robot_devices/cameras/opencv.py \
+    --images-dir outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras
+```
+
+The output will look something like this if you have two cameras connected:
+```
+Mac or Windows detected. Finding available camera indices through scanning all indices from 0 to 60
+[...]
+Camera found at index 0
+Camera found at index 1
+[...]
+Connecting cameras
+OpenCVCamera(0, fps=30.0, width=1920.0, height=1080.0, color_mode=rgb)
+OpenCVCamera(1, fps=24.0, width=1920.0, height=1080.0, color_mode=rgb)
+Saving images to outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras
+Frame: 0000	Latency (ms): 39.52
+[...]
+Frame: 0046	Latency (ms): 40.07
+Images have been saved to outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras
+```
+
+Check the saved images in `outputs/images_from_opencv_cameras` to identify which camera index corresponds to which physical camera (e.g. `0` for `camera_00` or `1` for `camera_01`):
+```
+camera_00_frame_000000.png
+[...]
+camera_00_frame_000047.png
+camera_01_frame_000000.png
+[...]
+camera_01_frame_000047.png
+```
+
+Note: Some cameras may take a few seconds to warm up, and the first frame might be black or green.
+
+Finally, run this code to instantiate and connect your camera:
+```python
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.cameras.configs import OpenCVCameraConfig
+from lerobot.common.robot_devices.cameras.opencv import OpenCVCamera
+
+config = OpenCVCameraConfig(camera_index=0)
+camera = OpenCVCamera(config)
+camera.connect()
+color_image = camera.read()
+
+print(color_image.shape)
+print(color_image.dtype)
+```
+
+Expected output for a laptop camera on MacBookPro:
+```
+(1080, 1920, 3)
+uint8
+```
+
+Or like this if you followed our tutorial to set a virtual camera:
+```
+(480, 640, 3)
+uint8
+```
+
+With certain camera, you can also specify additional parameters like frame rate, resolution, and color mode during instantiation. For instance:
+```python
+config = OpenCVCameraConfig(camera_index=0, fps=30, width=640, height=480)
+```
+
+If the provided arguments are not compatible with the camera, an exception will be raised.
+
+*Disconnecting the camera*
+
+When you're done using the camera, disconnect it by running:
+```python
+camera.disconnect()
+```
+
+**Instantiate your robot with cameras**
+
+Additionally, you can set up your robot to work with your cameras.
+
+Modify the following Python code with the appropriate camera names and configurations:
+```python
+robot = ManipulatorRobot(
+    KochRobotConfig(
+        leader_arms={"main": leader_arm},
+        follower_arms={"main": follower_arm},
+        calibration_dir=".cache/calibration/koch",
+        cameras={
+            "laptop": OpenCVCameraConfig(0, fps=30, width=640, height=480),
+            "phone": OpenCVCameraConfig(1, fps=30, width=640, height=480),
+        },
+    )
+)
+robot.connect()
+```
+
+As a result, `teleop_step(record_data=True` will return a frame for each camera following the pytorch "channel first" convention but we keep images in `uint8` with pixels in range [0,255] to easily save them.
+
+Modify this code with the names of your cameras and run it:
+```python
+observation, action = robot.teleop_step(record_data=True)
+print(observation["observation.images.laptop"].shape)
+print(observation["observation.images.phone"].shape)
+print(observation["observation.images.laptop"].min().item())
+print(observation["observation.images.laptop"].max().item())
+```
+
+The output should look like this:
+```
+torch.Size([3, 480, 640])
+torch.Size([3, 480, 640])
+0
+255
+```
+
+### d. Use `control_robot.py` and our `teleoperate` function
+
+Instead of manually running the python code in a terminal window, you can use [`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py`](../lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py) to instantiate your robot by providing the robot configurations via command line and control your robot with various modes as explained next.
+
+Try running this code to teleoperate your robot (if you dont have a camera, keep reading):
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=koch \
+  --control.type=teleoperate
+```
+
+You will see a lot of lines appearing like this one:
+```
+INFO 2024-08-10 11:15:03 ol_robot.py:209 dt: 5.12 (195.1hz) dtRlead: 4.93 (203.0hz) dtWfoll: 0.19 (5239.0hz)
+```
+
+It contains
+- `2024-08-10 11:15:03` which is the date and time of the call to the print function.
+- `ol_robot.py:209` which is the end of the file name and the line number where the print function is called  (`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py` line `209`).
+- `dt: 5.12 (195.1hz)` which is the "delta time" or the number of milliseconds spent between the previous call to `robot.teleop_step()` and the current one, associated with the frequency (5.12 ms equals 195.1 Hz) ; note that you can control the maximum frequency by adding fps as argument such as `--fps 30`.
+- `dtRlead: 4.93 (203.0hz)` which is the number of milliseconds it took to read the position of the leader arm using `leader_arm.read("Present_Position")`.
+- `dtWfoll: 0.22 (4446.9hz)` which is the number of milliseconds it took to set a new goal position for the follower arm using `follower_arm.write("Goal_position", leader_pos)` ; note that writing is done asynchronously so it takes less time than reading.
+
+Importantly: If you don't have any camera, you can remove them dynamically with this [draccus](https://github.com/dlwh/draccus) syntax `--robot.cameras='{}'`:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=koch \
+  --robot.cameras='{}' \
+  --control.type=teleoperate
+```
+
+We advise to create a new yaml file when the command becomes too long.
+
+## 3. Record your Dataset and Visualize it
+
+Using what you've learned previously, you can now easily record a dataset of states and actions for one episode. You can use `busy_wait` to control the speed of teleoperation and record at a fixed `fps` (frame per seconds).
+
+Try this code to record 30 seconds at 60 fps:
+```python
+import time
+from lerobot.scripts.control_robot import busy_wait
+
+record_time_s = 30
+fps = 60
+
+states = []
+actions = []
+for _ in range(record_time_s * fps):
+    start_time = time.perf_counter()
+    observation, action = robot.teleop_step(record_data=True)
+
+    states.append(observation["observation.state"])
+    actions.append(action["action"])
+
+    dt_s = time.perf_counter() - start_time
+    busy_wait(1 / fps - dt_s)
+
+# Note that observation and action are available in RAM, but
+# you could potentially store them on disk with pickle/hdf5 or
+# our optimized format `LeRobotDataset`. More on this next.
+```
+
+Importantly, many utilities are still missing. For instance, if you have cameras, you will need to save the images on disk to not go out of RAM, and to do so in threads to not slow down communication with your robot. Also, you will need to store your data in a format optimized for training and web sharing like [`LeRobotDataset`](../lerobot/common/datasets/lerobot_dataset.py). More on this in the next section.
+
+### a. Use the `record` function
+
+You can use the `record` function from [`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py`](../lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py) to achieve efficient data recording. It encompasses many recording utilities:
+1. Frames from cameras are saved on disk in threads, and encoded into videos at the end of each episode recording.
+2. Video streams from cameras are displayed in window so that you can verify them.
+3. Data is stored with [`LeRobotDataset`](../lerobot/common/datasets/lerobot_dataset.py) format which is pushed to your Hugging Face page (unless `--control.push_to_hub=false` is provided).
+4. Checkpoints are done during recording, so if any issue occurs, you can resume recording by re-running the same command again with `--control.resume=true`. You will need to manually delete the dataset directory if you want to start recording from scratch.
+5. Set the flow of data recording using command line arguments:
+   - `--control.warmup_time_s=10` defines the number of seconds before starting data collection. It allows the robot devices to warmup and synchronize (10 seconds by default).
+   - `--control.episode_time_s=60` defines the number of seconds for data recording for each episode (60 seconds by default).
+   - `--control.reset_time_s=60` defines the number of seconds for resetting the environment after each episode (60 seconds by default).
+   - `--control.num_episodes=50` defines the number of episodes to record (50 by default).
+6. Control the flow during data recording using keyboard keys:
+   - Press right arrow `->` at any time during episode recording to early stop and go to resetting. Same during resetting, to early stop and to go to the next episode recording.
+   - Press left arrow `<-` at any time during episode recording or resetting to early stop, cancel the current episode, and re-record it.
+   - Press escape `ESC` at any time during episode recording to end the session early and go straight to video encoding and dataset uploading.
+7. Similarly to `teleoperate`, you can also use the command line to override anything.
+
+Before trying `record`, if you want to push your dataset to the hub, make sure you've logged in using a write-access token, which can be generated from the [Hugging Face settings](https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens):
+```bash
+huggingface-cli login --token ${HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN} --add-to-git-credential
+```
+Also, store your Hugging Face repository name in a variable (e.g. `cadene` or `lerobot`). For instance, run this to use your Hugging Face user name as repository:
+```bash
+HF_USER=$(huggingface-cli whoami | head -n 1)
+echo $HF_USER
+```
+If you don't want to push to hub, use `--control.push_to_hub=false`.
+
+Now run this to record 2 episodes:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=koch \
+  --control.type=record \
+  --control.single_task="Grasp a lego block and put it in the bin." \
+  --control.fps=30 \
+  --control.repo_id=${HF_USER}/koch_test \
+  --control.tags='["tutorial"]' \
+  --control.warmup_time_s=5 \
+  --control.episode_time_s=30 \
+  --control.reset_time_s=30 \
+  --control.num_episodes=2 \
+  --control.push_to_hub=true
+```
+
+
+This will write your dataset locally to `~/.cache/huggingface/lerobot/{repo-id}` (e.g. `data/cadene/koch_test`) and push it on the hub at `https://huggingface.co/datasets/{HF_USER}/{repo-id}`. Your dataset will be automatically tagged with `LeRobot` for the community to find it easily, and you can also add custom tags (in this case `tutorial` for example).
+
+You can look for other LeRobot datasets on the hub by searching for `LeRobot` tags: https://huggingface.co/datasets?other=LeRobot
+
+You will see a lot of lines appearing like this one:
+```
+INFO 2024-08-10 15:02:58 ol_robot.py:219 dt:33.34 (30.0hz) dtRlead: 5.06 (197.5hz) dtWfoll: 0.25 (3963.7hz) dtRfoll: 6.22 (160.7hz) dtRlaptop: 32.57 (30.7hz) dtRphone: 33.84 (29.5hz)
+```
+It contains:
+- `2024-08-10 15:02:58` which is the date and time of the call to the print function,
+- `ol_robot.py:219` which is the end of the file name and the line number where the print function is called  (`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py` line `219`).
+- `dt:33.34 (30.0hz)` which is the "delta time" or the number of milliseconds spent between the previous call to `robot.teleop_step(record_data=True)` and the current one, associated with the frequency (33.34 ms equals 30.0 Hz) ; note that we use `--fps 30` so we expect 30.0 Hz ; when a step takes more time, the line appears in yellow.
+- `dtRlead: 5.06 (197.5hz)` which is the delta time of reading the present position of the leader arm.
+- `dtWfoll: 0.25 (3963.7hz)` which is the delta time of writing the goal position on the follower arm ; writing is asynchronous so it takes less time than reading.
+- `dtRfoll: 6.22 (160.7hz)` which is the delta time of reading the present position on the follower arm.
+- `dtRlaptop:32.57 (30.7hz) ` which is the delta time of capturing an image from the laptop camera in the thread running asynchronously.
+- `dtRphone:33.84 (29.5hz)` which is the delta time of capturing an image from the phone camera in the thread running asynchronously.
+
+Troubleshooting:
+- On Linux, if the left and right arrow keys and escape key don't have any effect during data recording, make sure you've set the `$DISPLAY` environment variable. See [pynput limitations](https://pynput.readthedocs.io/en/latest/limitations.html#linux).
+
+At the end of data recording, your dataset will be uploaded on your Hugging Face page (e.g. https://huggingface.co/datasets/cadene/koch_test) that you can obtain by running:
+```bash
+echo https://huggingface.co/datasets/${HF_USER}/koch_test
+```
+
+### b. Advice for recording dataset
+
+Once you're comfortable with data recording, it's time to create a larger dataset for training. A good starting task is grasping an object at different locations and placing it in a bin. We suggest recording at least 50 episodes, with 10 episodes per location. Keep the cameras fixed and maintain consistent grasping behavior throughout the recordings.
+
+In the following sections, you’ll train your neural network. After achieving reliable grasping performance, you can start introducing more variations during data collection, such as additional grasp locations, different grasping techniques, and altering camera positions.
+
+Avoid adding too much variation too quickly, as it may hinder your results.
+
+In the coming months, we plan to release a foundational model for robotics. We anticipate that fine-tuning this model will enhance generalization, reducing the need for strict consistency during data collection.
+
+### c. Visualize all episodes
+
+You can visualize your dataset by running:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/visualize_dataset_html.py \
+  --repo-id ${HF_USER}/koch_test
+```
+
+Note: You might need to add `--local-files-only 1` if your dataset was not uploaded to hugging face hub.
+
+This will launch a local web server that looks like this:
+<div style="text-align:center;">
+  <img src="../media/tutorial/visualize_dataset_html.webp?raw=true" alt="Koch v1.1 leader and follower arms" title="Koch v1.1 leader and follower arms" width="100%">
+</div>
+
+### d. Replay episode on your robot with the `replay` function
+
+A useful feature of [`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py`](../lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py) is the `replay` function, which allows to replay on your robot any episode that you've recorded or episodes from any dataset out there. This function helps you test the repeatability of your robot's actions and assess transferability across robots of the same model.
+
+To replay the first episode of the dataset you just recorded, run the following command:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=koch \
+  --control.type=replay \
+  --control.fps=30 \
+  --control.repo_id=${HF_USER}/koch_test \
+  --control.episode=0
+```
+
+Your robot should replicate movements similar to those you recorded. For example, check out [this video](https://x.com/RemiCadene/status/1793654950905680090) where we use `replay` on a Aloha robot from [Trossen Robotics](https://www.trossenrobotics.com).
+
+## 4. Train a policy on your data
+
+### a. Use the `train` script
+
+To train a policy to control your robot, use the [`python lerobot/scripts/train.py`](../lerobot/scripts/train.py) script. A few arguments are required. Here is an example command:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/train.py \
+  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/koch_test \
+  --policy.type=act \
+  --output_dir=outputs/train/act_koch_test \
+  --job_name=act_koch_test \
+  --policy.device=cuda \
+  --wandb.enable=true
+```
+
+Let's explain it:
+1. We provided the dataset as argument with `--dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/koch_test`.
+2. We provided the policy with `policy.type=act`. This loads configurations from [`configuration_act.py`](../lerobot/common/policies/act/configuration_act.py). Importantly, this policy will automatically adapt to the number of motor sates, motor actions and cameras of your robot (e.g. `laptop` and `phone`) which have been saved in your dataset.
+4. We provided `policy.device=cuda` since we are training on a Nvidia GPU, but you could use `policy.device=mps` to train on Apple silicon.
+5. We provided `wandb.enable=true` to use [Weights and Biases](https://docs.wandb.ai/quickstart) for visualizing training plots. This is optional but if you use it, make sure you are logged in by running `wandb login`.
+
+For more information on the `train` script see the previous tutorial: [`examples/4_train_policy_with_script.md`](../examples/4_train_policy_with_script.md)
+
+### b. (Optional) Upload policy checkpoints to the hub
+
+Once training is done, upload the latest checkpoint with:
+```bash
+huggingface-cli upload ${HF_USER}/act_koch_test \
+  outputs/train/act_koch_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model
+```
+
+You can also upload intermediate checkpoints with:
+```bash
+CKPT=010000
+huggingface-cli upload ${HF_USER}/act_koch_test_${CKPT} \
+  outputs/train/act_koch_test/checkpoints/${CKPT}/pretrained_model
+```
+
+## 5. Evaluate your policy
+
+Now that you have a policy checkpoint, you can easily control your robot with it using methods from [`ManipulatorRobot`](../lerobot/common/robot_devices/robots/manipulator.py) and the policy.
+
+Try this code for running inference for 60 seconds at 30 fps:
+```python
+from lerobot.common.policies.act.modeling_act import ACTPolicy
+
+inference_time_s = 60
+fps = 30
+device = "cuda"  # TODO: On Mac, use "mps" or "cpu"
+
+ckpt_path = "outputs/train/act_koch_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model"
+policy = ACTPolicy.from_pretrained(ckpt_path)
+policy.to(device)

+
+### a. Use our `record` function
+
+Ideally, when controlling your robot with your neural network, you would want to record evaluation episodes and to be able to visualize them later on, or even train on them like in Reinforcement Learning. This pretty much corresponds to recording a new dataset but with a neural network providing the actions instead of teleoperation.
+
+To this end, you can use the `record` function from [`lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py`](../lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py) but with a policy checkpoint as input. For instance, run this command to record 10 evaluation episodes:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
+  --robot.type=koch \
+  --control.type=record \
+  --control.fps=30 \
+  --control.repo_id=${HF_USER}/eval_act_koch_test \
+  --control.tags='["tutorial"]' \
+  --control.warmup_time_s=5 \
+  --control.episode_time_s=30 \
+  --control.reset_time_s=30 \
+  --control.num_episodes=10 \
+  --control.push_to_hub=true \
+  --control.policy.path=outputs/train/act_koch_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model
+```
+
+As you can see, it's almost the same command as previously used to record your training dataset. Two things changed:
+1. There is an additional `--control.policy.path` argument which indicates the path to your policy checkpoint with  (e.g. `outputs/train/eval_koch_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model`). You can also use the model repository if you uploaded a model checkpoint to the hub (e.g. `${HF_USER}/act_koch_test`).
+2. The name of dataset begins by `eval` to reflect that you are running inference (e.g. `${HF_USER}/eval_act_koch_test`).
+
+### b. Visualize evaluation afterwards
+
+You can then visualize your evaluation dataset by running the same command as before but with the new inference dataset as argument:
+```bash
+python lerobot/scripts/visualize_dataset.py \
+  --repo-id ${HF_USER}/eval_act_koch_test
+```
+

-In this tutorial we will learn how to adapt a policy configuration to be compatible with a new environment and dataset. As a concrete example, we will adapt the default configuration for ACT to be compatible with the PushT environment and dataset.
-
-If you haven't already read our tutorial on the [training script and configuration tooling](../4_train_policy_with_script.md) please do so prior to tackling this tutorial.
-
-Let's get started!
-
-Suppose we want to train ACT for PushT. Well, there are aspects of the ACT configuration that are specific to the ALOHA environments, and these happen to be incompatible with PushT. Therefore, trying to run the following will almost certainly raise an exception of sorts (eg: feature dimension mismatch):
-
-```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py policy=act env=pusht dataset_repo_id=lerobot/pusht
-```
-
-We need to adapt the parameters of the ACT policy configuration to the PushT environment. The most important ones are the image keys.
-
-ALOHA's datasets and environments typically use a variable number of cameras. In `lerobot/configs/policy/act.yaml` you may notice two relevant sections. Here we show you the minimal diff needed to adjust to PushT:
-
-```diff
-override_dataset_stats:
--  observation.images.top:
-+  observation.image:
-    # stats from imagenet, since we use a pretrained vision model
-    mean: [[[0.485]], [[0.456]], [[0.406]]]  # (c,1,1)
-    std: [[[0.229]], [[0.224]], [[0.225]]]  # (c,1,1)
-
-policy:
-  input_shapes:
--    observation.images.top: [3, 480, 640]
-+    observation.image: [3, 96, 96]
-    observation.state: ["${env.state_dim}"]
-  output_shapes:
-    action: ["${env.action_dim}"]
-
-  input_normalization_modes:
--    observation.images.top: mean_std
-+    observation.image: mean_std
-     observation.state: min_max
-  output_normalization_modes:
-    action: min_max
-```
-
-Here we've accounted for the following:
-- PushT uses "observation.image" for its image key.
-- PushT provides smaller images.
-
-_Side note: technically we could override these via the CLI, but with many changes it gets a bit messy, and we also have a bit of a challenge in that we're using `.` in our observation keys which is treated by Hydra as a hierarchical separator_.
-
-For your convenience, we provide [`act_pusht.yaml`](./act_pusht.yaml) in this directory. It contains the diff above, plus some other (optional) ones that are explained within. Please copy it into `lerobot/configs/policy` with:
-
-```bash
-cp examples/advanced/1_train_act_pusht/act_pusht.yaml lerobot/configs/policy/act_pusht.yaml
-```
-
-(remember from a [previous tutorial](../4_train_policy_with_script.md) that Hydra will look in the `lerobot/configs` directory). Now try running the following.
-
-<!-- Note to contributor: are you changing this command? Note that it's tested in `Makefile`, so change it there too! -->
-```bash
-python lerobot/scripts/train.py policy=act_pusht env=pusht
-```
-
-Notice that this is much the same as the command that failed at the start of the tutorial, only:
-- Now we are using `policy=act_pusht` to point to our new configuration file.
-- We can drop `dataset_repo_id=lerobot/pusht` as the change is incorporated in our new configuration file.
-
-Hurrah! You're now training ACT for the PushT environment.
-
----
-
-The bottom line of this tutorial is that when training policies for different environments and datasets you will need to understand what parts of the policy configuration are specific to those and make changes accordingly.
-
-Happy coding! 🤗

+    Manages interactions with Intel RealSense cameras for frame and depth recording.
+
+    This class provides an interface similar to `OpenCVCamera` but tailored for
+    RealSense devices, leveraging the `pyrealsense2` library. It uses the camera's
+    unique serial number for identification, offering more stability than device
+    indices, especially on Linux. It also supports capturing depth maps alongside
+    color frames.
+
+    Use the provided utility script to find available camera indices and default profiles:
+    ```bash
+    python -m lerobot.find_cameras
+    ```
+
+    A `RealSenseCamera` instance requires a configuration object specifying the
+    camera's serial number or a unique device name. If using the name, ensure only
+    one camera with that name is connected.
+
+    The camera's default settings (FPS, resolution, color mode) from the stream
+    profile are used unless overridden in the configuration.
+
+    Args:
+        config (RealSenseCameraConfig): Configuration object containing settings like
+            serial number or name, desired FPS, width, height, color mode, rotation,
+            and whether to capture depth.

-# Video benchmark

-## Questions
-
-What is the optimal trade-off between:
-- maximizing loading time with random access,
-- minimizing memory space on disk,
-- maximizing success rate of policies?
-
-How to encode videos?
-- How much compression (`-crf`)? Low compression with `0`, normal compression with `20` or extreme with `56`?
-- What pixel format to use (`-pix_fmt`)? `yuv444p` or `yuv420p`?
-- How many key frames (`-g`)? A key frame every `10` frames?
-
-How to decode videos?
-- Which `decoder`? `torchvision`, `torchaudio`, `ffmpegio`, `decord`, or `nvc`?
-
-## Metrics
-
-**Percentage of data compression (higher is better)**
-`compression_factor` is the ratio of the memory space on disk taken by the original images to encode, to the memory space taken by the encoded video. For instance, `compression_factor=4` means that the video takes 4 times less memory space on disk compared to the original images.
-
-**Percentage of loading time (higher is better)**
-`load_time_factor` is the ratio of the time it takes to load original images at given timestamps, to the time it takes to decode the exact same frames from the video. Higher is better. For instance, `load_time_factor=0.5` means that decoding from video is 2 times slower than loading the original images.
-
-**Average L2 error per pixel (lower is better)**
-`avg_per_pixel_l2_error` is the average L2 error between each decoded frame and its corresponding original image over all requested timestamps, and also divided by the number of pixels in the image to be comparable when switching to different image sizes.
-
-**Loss of a pretrained policy (higher is better)** (not available)
-`loss_pretrained` is the result of evaluating with the selected encoding/decoding settings a policy pretrained on original images. It is easier to understand than `avg_l2_error`.
-
-**Success rate after retraining (higher is better)** (not available)
-`success_rate` is the result of training and evaluating a policy with the selected encoding/decoding settings. It is the most difficult metric to get but also the very best.
-
-
-## Variables
-
-**Image content**
-We don't expect the same optimal settings for a dataset of images from a simulation, or from real-world in an appartment, or in a factory, or outdoor, etc. Hence, we run this benchmark on two datasets: `pusht` (simulation) and `umi` (real-world outdoor).
-
-**Requested timestamps**
-In this benchmark, we focus on the loading time of random access, so we are not interested in sequentially loading all frames of a video like in a movie. However, the number of consecutive timestamps requested and their spacing can greatly affect the `load_time_factor`. In fact, it is expected to get faster loading time by decoding a large number of consecutive frames from a video, than to load the same data from individual images. To reflect our robotics use case, we consider a few settings:
-- `single_frame`: 1 frame,
-- `2_frames`: 2 consecutive frames (e.g. `[t, t + 1 / fps]`),
-- `2_frames_4_space`: 2 consecutive frames with 4 frames of spacing (e.g `[t, t + 4 / fps]`),
-
-**Data augmentations**
-We might revisit this benchmark and find better settings if we train our policies with various data augmentations to make them more robust (e.g. robust to color changes, compression, etc.).

-        Return JPEG XL image from numpy array.
-        Float must be in nominal range 0..1.
-
-        Currently L, LA, RGB, RGBA images are supported in contig mode.
-        Extra channels are only supported for grayscale images in planar mode.
-
-        Parameters
-        ----------
-        level : Default to None, i.e. not overwriting lossess and decodingspeed options.
-            When < 0: Use lossless compression
-            When in [0,1,2,3,4]: Sets the decoding speed tier for the provided options.
-                Minimum is 0 (slowest to decode, best quality/density), and maximum
-                is 4 (fastest to decode, at the cost of some quality/density).
-        effort : Default to 3.
-            Sets encoder effort/speed level without affecting decoding speed.
-            Valid values are, from faster to slower speed: 1:lightning 2:thunder
-                3:falcon 4:cheetah 5:hare 6:wombat 7:squirrel 8:kitten 9:tortoise.
-            Speed: lightning, thunder, falcon, cheetah, hare, wombat, squirrel, kitten, tortoise
-            control the encoder effort in ascending order.
-            This also affects memory usage: using lower effort will typically reduce memory
-            consumption during encoding.
-            lightning and thunder are fast modes useful for lossless mode (modular).
-            falcon disables all of the following tools.
-            cheetah enables coefficient reordering, context clustering, and heuristics for selecting DCT sizes and quantization steps.
-            hare enables Gaborish filtering, chroma from luma, and an initial estimate of quantization steps.
-            wombat enables error diffusion quantization and full DCT size selection heuristics.
-            squirrel (default) enables dots, patches, and spline detection, and full context clustering.
-            kitten optimizes the adaptive quantization for a psychovisual metric.
-            tortoise enables a more thorough adaptive quantization search.
-        distance : Default to 1.0
-            Sets the distance level for lossy compression: target max butteraugli distance,
-            lower = higher quality. Range: 0 .. 15. 0.0 = mathematically lossless
-            (however, use JxlEncoderSetFrameLossless instead to use true lossless,
-            as setting distance to 0 alone is not the only requirement).
-            1.0 = visually lossless. Recommended range: 0.5 .. 3.0.
-        lossess : Default to False.
-            Use lossess encoding.
-        decodingspeed : Default to 0.
-            Duplicate to level. [0,4]
-        photometric : Return JxlColorSpace value.
-            Default logic is quite complicated but works most of the time.
-            Accepted value:
-                int: [-1,3]
-                str: ['RGB',
-                    'WHITEISZERO', 'MINISWHITE',
-                    'BLACKISZERO', 'MINISBLACK', 'GRAY',
-                    'XYB', 'KNOWN']
-        planar : Enable multi-channel mode.
-            Default to false.
-        usecontainer :
-            Forces the encoder to use the box-based container format (BMFF)
-            even when not necessary.
-            When using JxlEncoderUseBoxes, JxlEncoderStoreJPEGMetadata or
-            JxlEncoderSetCodestreamLevel with level 10, the encoder will
-            automatically also use the container format, it is not necessary
-            to use JxlEncoderUseContainer for those use cases.
-            By default this setting is disabled.
-        index : Selectively decode frames for animation.
-            Default to 0, decode all frames.
-            When set to > 0, decode that frame index only.
-        keeporientation :
-            Enables or disables preserving of as-in-bitstream pixeldata orientation.
-            Some images are encoded with an Orientation tag indicating that the
-            decoder must perform a rotation and/or mirroring to the encoded image data.
-
-            If skip_reorientation is JXL_FALSE (the default): the decoder will apply
-            the transformation from the orientation setting, hence rendering the image
-            according to its specified intent. When producing a JxlBasicInfo, the decoder
-            will always set the orientation field to JXL_ORIENT_IDENTITY (matching the
-            returned pixel data) and also align xsize and ysize so that they correspond
-            to the width and the height of the returned pixel data.
-
-            If skip_reorientation is JXL_TRUE: the decoder will skip applying the
-            transformation from the orientation setting, returning the image in
-            the as-in-bitstream pixeldata orientation. This may be faster to decode
-            since the decoder doesnt have to apply the transformation, but can
-            cause wrong display of the image if the orientation tag is not correctly
-            taken into account by the user.
-
-            By default, this option is disabled, and the returned pixel data is
-            re-oriented according to the images Orientation setting.
-        threads : Default to 1.
-            If <= 0, use all cores.
-            If > 32, clipped to 32.
