Open X-Embodiment: over a million real robot trajectories from 22 embodiments, pooled from 60 datasets, under CC BY 4.0
Open X-Embodiment, released by Google DeepMind with 21 institutions in October 2023, pools 60 existing robot datasets from 34 labs into over a million real robot trajectories across 22 robot embodiments, 527 skills and 160,266 tasks. The code is Apache 2.0 and the other materials Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, so it is usable commercially. The million figure is from the project page; the paper abstract gives the embodiments, skills and tasks.

What it changes
For a robot maker collecting or buying hours
This is the open, commercially usable pool, and it is a federation of academic datasets recorded for other purposes, which is why a training ground that records to one specification is worth building. A maker can start from it; nobody on this ledger claims a product was trained on it alone.
