About this opportunity:
Turing is recruiting skilled professionals for a research program using wearable technology to improve AI understanding of manual labor.
This short-term engagement involves recording daily activities in a woodworking, building, or fabrication routine as part of the project.
* Participants will be required to wear a head-mounted camera to capture their daily activities for 5 separate days within a 2-week window.
* Each day, they will need to record a minimum of 7 hours of footage, with flexibility to take breaks and pause the camera when necessary.
Responsibilities:
* Upload recorded footage to a secure platform at the end of each day.
* Review short clips from the previous day's recordings.
* Choose to delete, anonymize, or consent to each video segment before uploading.
Requirements:
* No children (under 18) should be present or visiting during the recording period.
* All adults in the space must be fluent English speakers and provide informed consent to being recorded.
* The participant must live in a private, self-contained apartment, building, or indoor work environment.
* All household members must agree to appear in the footage.
Participant Eligibility:
* The participant should work indoors in non-customer-facing roles (e.g., not retail or child care).
* Those who share the same workplace or household should both have a GoPro mounted during the activity.
* It's preferable for participants to be engaged in manual or creative work (e.g., chef, baker, artist, carpenter, musician, electrician, mechanic).
* They must be self-employed or have employer consent to record in the work environment.
* Able to use a computer for basic tasks such as reviewing and uploading video clips.
Technical Requirements:
* Access to a computer and internet connection.
* Comfortable using web-based tools for uploading and reviewing clips (training will be provided).
* A GoPro camera and all accessories will be provided for the duration of the project.
Benefits:
* Contribute to shaping the future of human-centered AI research.
* This short-term engagement offers flexible scheduling with minimal disruption to your routine.
* All equipment will be provided by Turing.
* You'll be part of an innovative global data collection initiative.
Project Details:
* Duration: 2 weeks (plus setup and review time).
