Video Recording Participant – Household AI Project

About the Project

TSMG is looking for participants to support a household AI video data collection project.

Participants will complete a series of everyday household activities in a realistic home environment while being recorded using client-provided equipment. The collected videos will help improve artificial intelligence systems that understand human activities and interactions in home settings.

  • Making coffee or tea.

  • Eating while watching television.

  • Cleaning the kitchen and taking out the trash.

  • Working on a laptop or phone.

  • Writing notes by hand.

  • Folding and ironing laundry.

  • Watering plants.

  • Reading or relaxing.

  • Repeat individual tasks if a recording does not meet quality requirements.
