## Abstract (arXiv)

Scaling up robot learning will likely require human data containing rich and long-horizon interactions in the wild. Existing approaches for collecting such data trade off portability, robustness to occlusion, and global consistency. We introduce RoSHI, a hybrid wearable that fuses low-cost sparse IMUs with the Project Aria glasses to estimate the full 3D pose and body shape of the wearer in a metric global coordinate frame from egocentric perception. This system is motivated by the complementarity of the two sensors: IMUs provide robustness to occlusions and high-speed motions, while egocentric SLAM anchors long-horizon motion and stabilizes upper body pose. We collect a dataset of agile activities to evaluate RoSHI. On this dataset, we generally outperform other egocentric baselines and perform comparably to a state-of-the-art exocentric baseline (SAM3D). Finally, we demonstrate that the motion data recorded from our system are suitable for real-world humanoid policy learning.
