Seats are limited, Pre-registration is mandatory.
Date, Time and Location
Oct 21, 2026 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM SFU Segal Centre, Harbour Centre 515 W Hastings St Vancouver, BC
Meetup Agenda 5:30–6:30 PM
- Networking, food, drinks, and lightning talks
Workshop Agenda This hands-on session uses DROID, a real-world robotics dataset loaded into FiftyOne as a native multimodal MCAP recording, and YOLO11n, fine-tuned live during the session.
6:30–7:30 PM
- Welcome + framing: from raw robot logs to a trained detector
- Explore a real DROID robotics recording in FiftyOne's native multimodal MCAP viewer: camera, proprioception, and language on one synced timeline, no ROS install required
- Curate: extract and browse frames from the recording, filter and deduplicate
- Compute embeddings on the curated frames; explore via similarity search and embeddings visualization (via Nebius Serverless AI Jobs)
7:30–8:00 PM
- Auto-label: open-vocabulary detection to generate bounding boxes for the robot gripper and target objects
- Train: fine-tune a YOLO11n detector on the auto-labeled frames (via Nebius Serverless AI Jobs)
- Evaluate results and close the loop: view predictions back on the original MCAP timeline
8:00–8:30 PM
- What else Nebius offers: Token Factory walkthrough — chat/vision models, fine-tuning, credits
