# Master's Thesis: Robot Learning from Operational Data

Can robots learn from the work they already do? In this master's thesis at 120ft, you will investigate how operational data can improve robot learning for real assembly tasks. Host: 120ft Factory AB, Stockholm Company supervisor: Sulthan Suresh Fazeela Field: Machine learning and robotics Background 120ft builds Factory OS, a software layer that lets humanoid robots, currently the Unitree G1-D, carry out high-mix, low-volume assembly work. Robot behaviour comes from Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies trained on recorded demonstrations. Today, almost all training data comes from dedicated teleoperation sessions. Every hour of that data costs an operator's hour. But the robot also generates data every time it runs. The research question Operational rollouts include per-frame tags showing whether a human or a policy was driving. You will investigate whether data from policy-driven episodes can improve the policy, how it can be combined with teleoperation demonstrations, and which data helps rather than hurts. What you will investigate This is an offline, experimental project using already-collected rollout data, rather than building a live production pipeline. The goal is to charac
