Overview

What it does: Robotheca's summary

  • Ingests multi-rate multimodal data such as images, point clouds, transforms, time series, joint states and video from many formats including MCAP, rrd and LeRobot.
  • Built-in viewer renders all data in sync and in realtime, supporting scrubbing episodes and comparing sensors side by side.
  • Data can be queried with dataframes or SQL and streamed directly into training.
  • Stored in column-chunk storage designed for multi-rate physical data, written in Rust.
  • Viewer can be run in a browser, and Python SDK can be installed with pip install rerun-sdk.
  • Positioned as an alternative to visualizers like RViz, with time-aware storage and a buffer whose size can be adjusted.
