Inside the Korean hotel training humanoid robots with cameras on workers’ hands

South Korea is investing heavily in physical AI and humanoid robotics to transfer skilled human labor into robots.

RLWRLD is filming hotel, warehouse, and convenience store workers to collect motion data for robotic hand training.

At a Seoul hotel, workers perform tasks like folding napkins and polishing glasses while wearing cameras to capture detailed movements.

The goal is to build five-finger robots with humanlike dexterity for service and industrial jobs, raising automation and job displacement concerns.
