LeRobot Dataset Visualizer

LeRobot Dataset Visualizer is a web application for interactive exploration and visualization of robotics datasets, particularly those in the LeRobot format. It enables users to browse, view, and analyze episodes from large-scale robotics datasets, combining synchronized video playback with rich, interactive data graphs.

Project Overview

This tool is designed to help robotics researchers and practitioners quickly inspect and understand large, complex datasets. It fetches dataset metadata and episode data (including video and sensor/telemetry data), and provides a unified interface for:

• Navigating between organizations, datasets, and episodes
• Watching episode videos
• Exploring synchronized time-series data with interactive charts
• Paginating through large datasets efficiently

Key Features

• Dataset & Episode Navigation: Quickly jump between organizations, datasets, and episodes using a sidebar and navigation controls.
• Synchronized Video & Data: Video playback is synchronized with interactive data graphs for detailed inspection of sensor and control signals.
• Efficient Data Loading: Uses parquet and JSON loading for large dataset support, with pagination and chunking.
• Responsive UI: Built with React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS for a fast, modern user experience.

Technologies Used

• Next.js (App Router)
• React
• Recharts (for data visualization)
• hyparquet (for reading Parquet files)
• Tailwind CSS (styling)

Getting Started

Prerequisites

This project uses Bun as its package manager. If you don't have it installed:

# Install Bun
curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash

Installation

Install dependencies:

bun install

Development

Run the development server:

bun dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying src/app/page.tsx or other files in the src/ directory. The app supports hot-reloading for rapid development.

Other Commands

# Build for production
bun run build

Start production server
bun start
Run linter
bun run lint
Format code
bun run format

Environment Variables

• DATASET_URL: (optional) Base URL for dataset hosting (defaults to HuggingFace Datasets).

Docker Deployment

This application can be deployed using Docker with bun for optimal performance and self-contained builds.

Build the Docker image

docker build -t lerobot-visualizer .

Run the container

docker run -p 7860:7860 lerobot-visualizer

The application will be available at http://localhost:7860.

Run with custom environment variables

docker run -p 7860:7860 -e DATASET_URL=your-url lerobot-visualizer
