Browser-based robot teleoperation data platform.
The fuel station for agent robot stacks — elizaOS-ready by design.

phyzical turns anyone with a browser into a robot data contributor. Users teleoperate simulated robot arms like a 3D web game — drag the end-effector, inverse kinematics solves the joints — and every session produces a 30–60Hz demonstration trajectory (joint positions, end-effector pose, object poses, actions) ready for Vision-Language-Action (VLA) and imitation-learning training. Episode provenance (Data ID + content hash + contributor) is anchored on-chain.

No robot hardware. No expertise. Just a browser tab.

elizaOS is an open-source agentic operating system. Its robotics stack (developed in elizaOS/research — robot/ and plugin-ainex/) ships everything an embodied agent needs except large-scale human demonstration data:

phyzical is that missing supply side. Crowdsourced browser demonstrations in, trajectory_db-compatible training episodes out.

This repo contains the open pieces of that pipeline:

Requires Python 3.10+. No dependencies — stdlib only.

python3 converters/eliza_robot/import_phyzical.py \
    examples/episode_block_sorting.json \
    --db trajectories.db

Output is a SQLite database using the same DDL as eliza_robot/trajectory_db/schema.py (attributed, MIT), so it drops straight into the elizaOS robot training pipeline:

trajectories        1 row   — the episode (source='phyzical', is_training_data=1)
trajectory_steps    1 row   — the human teleoperation macro-step
control_frames     90 rows  — 30Hz joint/EE/action frames
embodied_contexts   1 row   — object poses + task description

This mirrors how elizaOS already ingests external episode sources (see their trajectory_db/import_hyperscape.py) — phyzical is simply the next source: source="phyzical".

phyzical arms accept three actions sources over the same WebSocket and the same episode schema: Human (mouse-drag + IK — the pre-training core), Auto (scripted patrol — coverage and baselines), and Fly — a mapped fruit-fly nervous system.

_{From the phyzical fly demo film: the fly ghosts out, its complete CNS — brain + ventral nerve cord — lights up.}

In 2025, Google Research and HHMI Janelia released MaleCNS v1.0 (CC BY): the first complete central nervous system map of an adult male fruit fly — ~166,000+ neurons across brain and ventral nerve cord, including 3,335 R1–R6 and 811 R7/R8 photoreceptors. The Fly controller wires a visual crop of that graph to the scene camera:

 scene camera ──▶ ommatidia sampling ──▶ fixed wiring ──▶ DN readout ──▶ ee_delta
 (64×64 crop)     R1–R6 + R8 channels    no training      turn/lift/       same WebSocket,
                  + habituation          no gradients     drive/grip       same schema
                                              ▲
                              PPL101 (aversive) / PAM (reward)
                              dopamine-style teach events on
                              collision or success

Step 1 — visual crop. The scene camera feeds hex-sampled ommatidia (R1–R6 / R8); the fly hovers on its own POV.

Step 2 — DN readout. Fixed wiring → turn/drive/grip gauges → ee_delta; a collision fires PPL101 + AVERSIVE.

Run it — the controller and demo are in this repo, stdlib-only:

# generate a fly episode (T-F01 "Keep Target Centered", deterministic)
python3 controllers/flycns/demo.py --out examples/episode_fly_keep_centered.json

# import it into the same trajectory_db as human episodes
python3 converters/eliza_robot/import_phyzical.py \
    examples/episode_fly_keep_centered.json --db trajectories.db

Fly episodes log controller=flycns_v1, per-frame dn_readout and fly_stim, and the teach-event history — same schema as human demos, different actions source. QC is controller-aware (collision rate, drop events, visual habituation instead of human smoothness), and the controller tag is written into on-chain provenance metadata so datasets can be filtered by source (human / auto / flycns). In the elizaOS stack this surfaces as a FlyController profile alongside human teleoperation.

Humans produce the pre-training core; Fly produces differentiated rollouts and control baselines — saccadic, reactive trajectories no human or script generates. Design doc: docs/flycns.md.

Fly mode is a mapped connectome controller. It is not a trained policy and not a claim of animal-level dexterity. MaleCNS v1.0 © Google Research & HHMI Janelia, CC BY — the mapping is an engineering interface, not a biological claim.

1. Data supply (this repo, now) — browser demos → trajectory_db → imitation warm-starts for Alberta continual-RL and text-conditioned policies.
2. Profile-matched tasks — phyzical scenes pinned to elizaOS RobotProfileId morphologies (URDF/MJCF), so demos target robots the stack actually simulates and deploys.
3. Human-in-the-loop flywheel (next) — elizaOS policies roll out inside phyzical's browser scenes; humans take over when the policy fails (DAgger-style); correction segments flow back as high-value training data.
4. Agent data economy — elizaOS agents as autonomous dataset consumers, verifying episode provenance (Data ID + content hash) on-chain before purchase.
