Yes. Companies building home robots need video of real people cooking, cleaning, folding laundry and tidying, filmed from the person's own point of view, so their robots can learn how the tasks are done. They pay for it as remote contract work. 69 such jobs are open today at 7 employers, each read from the employer's own job board, and you apply on the employer's site. No real employer asks you to pay to apply or to be trained.
The middle half of the hourly rates these postings state runs $10 to $50 an hour, with a median of $16. The highest posted rate is $120 an hour (Alignerr). The same work is priced by country: Claru, for example, posts it at $15 an hour in the United States, $10 in Canada, $7 in Latin America and $5 in Asia. Advertised pay is not guaranteed earnings.
It depends on the employer. 5 of today's postings pay per hour of video that passes review, so footage that is rejected, or time spent setting up, earns nothing; others, like Claru's household capture, pay a flat hourly rate. Each posting says which, and the pay on each job here is labelled the same way.
Usually a recent smartphone and a head mount: micro1 accepts an iPhone 12 or later, a Pixel 6 to 9 or a Galaxy S21 or later and ships the mount. Some roles need more: RemoExperts asks for your own Insta360 X5 worn on your head, micro1's 360° role an Insta360 or GoPro MAX, and Alignerr's video research roles an Android phone with a headset it specifies. Sunday Robotics sends its own hardware.
It depends on the job: 2 are open worldwide, and the others name the countries they accept, 85 countries between them today. Choose your country on this page to see only the jobs open to you; each job page lists every country it accepts.
Read what each posting says about what may appear on camera (other people, children, documents, screens), how the footage is used and who reviews it, and whether you keep a copy. Film only rooms and people you have the right to film, and stop if a project asks for something you are not comfortable recording.
